Finally op day tomorrow!

[rosieposie88 16]

Phew! I made it to day 14 of my pre op milk diet. Feeling fab, lost 16lbs!!! Bag all packed and ready to go get banded tomorrow. Can't wait, so excited and I must admit a little nervous. My partner reminded me this evening that I wouldn't see my daughters for 2 days, I cried. Think im a tad emotional!! Xx

I think the crying is totally normal...I completely broke down crying when I had to say goodbye to my husband and mom before surgery.

Best of luck tomorrow!

Congratulations! I was nervous, too, and very excited. You are choosing a healthy future for yourself and that is a very emotional step. I had never been an overnight patient in the hospital before and it was all so much easier than I thought it would be. I felt well taken care of and I'm sure you will, too. Keep us posted. I just saw another Post for some one getting banded tomorrow so you will have a band birthday to Celebrate together. Just think of a year from now!
