Tomorrow's My Day. My Surgery Is Scheduled For 7am At The Omega Hospital In Metairie, La. I Am Very Excited And Also A Little Nervous. I Guess My Biggest Concern Is If The First Couple Of Days Of The liquid Phase Is The Hardest To Endure. Thanks For Listening And I Will Talk Back With You All Soon After I Am Banded.

Good luck, Dlogan!! And remember, the liquid phase is only temporary. And you may be one of the lucky ones who feels no hunger for weeks after banding. (Hey, it's possible!)

Come back and let us know how it goes. You're on your way!! :D

dlogan: GOOD LUCK on your surgery tomorrow. I will have you in my prayers. It is exciting and scary all at the same time. I almost hyperventilated going into the OR during my surgery. LOL!!

Yippee!! Looking for your post-surgery post...let us know how it went. I'd imagine you'll come here often for advice and reassurance. You'll get it! Good luck tomorrow!

Good luck dlogan!!!! Best wishes! My day is coming on Thursday so I am HOT on your heals! WoooooooooT!

Good for you! Its great that Jenna will be banded near the same time as you, helps to have a band buddy. Hope all goes well.

Congratulations! Here's to a noneventful surgery and a quick recovery. Please let us know how you're doing when you feel like it.

Good luck and please let us know how you are when you can.

Hope your surgery goes great and you have a quick recovery. As far as "liquad phase" I have found that even the smallest amount of soup fills me up. You may be pleasantly supprised how little hungar you feel. I know I was!

Good Luck to you on this next phase of your weight loss journey

Wishing you great success & a speedy recovery!!

Congratulations! The liquid phase isn't that bad -- I say that because I wasn't really hungry during the first two weeks. (Not everyone has that reaction.) Let us know how you're doing.

Thank You All For Replying And Wishing Me Luck Prior To My Surgery On 03-21-05. My Surgery Went Very Well. I Was Scheduled For 7am That Morning And After 3pm That Afternoon, I Was Discharged Home. I Only Experienced Soreness With My Incisions, But The Gas Pains Were Bothersome. My First Post-op Visit Was 03-28-05 And I Weighed In At 207 From My Pre-surgery Weight Of 217. I Am Doing Very Well. The Liquid Phase Was Not Bad At All, Because I Really Did Not Feel That Hungry. My First Fill Will Be On 04-28-05. I Will Update You All Later On My Progress. Thank You All For Your Prayers, Support, And Listening Ears.

Love,

Dlogan
