My surgery is less than 2 wks away. In just 10 days I will be on the other side, in "band land" scared, nervous, anxious, just so ready....

I had those exact same feelings. Best of luck to you and wishing you a speedy recovery.

I gave it a year and, oh, what a year. Now into second year and still so excited and happy.....best wishes to you!

i was extremely anxious too! i kept thinking what if it doesn't work or i eat too much! but now being banded for one month today i now know having lap band surgery was the best decision of my life. I'm slowly but surely falling back in love with life and exploring new things again! I haven't felt this way in years!

I'm so hoping for the same result. Good luck to you

Both my daughters and I will be having surgery 2/12- right behind you! I can relate to all the feelings you are going through. I know this will be the best decision we have ever made. Best wishes to you!

How great, y'all doing it together, great support team. Good luck to all of u, best wishes. Keep me updated

How cool! You will have such great support for your new ways of eating and being active and you can share your successes together! What a great family goal. I hope you will post your progress here!

Yes, I will definitely post our progress! We are so ready to get this party started!!

@PSRS520- how are you doing with your pre-op diet and jitters? I will have you in my thoughts this week as you cross into band-land. So jealous :-) Good luck and keep your eye on the prize!

I'm trying my best w/the pre-op diet, as for my jitters, omg worse than I thought!! I'm really thinking if I shld just put it off. But I know this is what I want and what I NEED to do. Thanks. I will put all updates on here

Hang in there- you got this!! We are rooting you on and I am very excited to be able to see your fabulous progress/updates in the coming months! Positive thoughts coming your way!

Well, if my calculations are correct, today was the day! How are you feeling? I hope you are doing well and wishing you a speedy recovery!!

Thx. Yes yesterday was the big day. So for yesterday, I was very sore, full of air/gas, couldn't for the life of me get it out. Did walking and let two lil tiny burps out. Took 2 pain pills which helped knock me out. Today I'm sore, don't feel so bloated, it's still to early to tell...
