I am just reminding myself to do this.... I don't get banded until December 17th and just had a holy S#*^ , what am I doing panic moment. I wish I didn't have 10 weeks to think about this. (from the time I schedulded my surgery) but being a teacher this is the best time!! BREATH!!!!!!!!

You are so funny, but one of so many of us. I was down right scared...was updating my will...wrote my kids goodbye letters, getting my finances in order...directions on what to do if I "don't come back". Was terrible.

Now I look back and think how silly I was. When I made the decision for lapband then took a few weeks to select a surgeon...I had my appointment within a month. Don't know if I could go through all that gloom and doom thinking for longer than that.

Hang in there and you'll be fine!

Keep us posted.

Oh boy, do I remember those feelings well!

They are scary, but ultimately exciting aren't they?

You will get through this and in a year be so very grateful you went through with it.

Cheers and hugs.

Teachers Rock!:clap2:

Us this time to get your house and refrig all stocked up with everything you'll be needing for the first 2 months after surgery. I had a month and a half to twiddle my fingers so I started "storing my nuts for the winter." It was a great distraction!
