Trish - everything you are going through is normal! If you didn't have those feelings, then I would be worried about you! :laugh

Your surgery will be here before you know it. I think it is much harder when you have to wait so long for it to get here. Before you know it you will be in lapband, giving someone else advice! :laugh :laugh

Hi -Trish- I just wanted to say "HORRAY" For Trish!!!! I know your sooooexcited- Good for you. I hope you get all your things in a row & am so happy you have a great Hubby for support!

OMG thats to funny Jenna... I would booty dance with you, but im afraid I will take down some people with my big ole butt LOL

Well I feel GREAT today... I had my pre-op and feel loads better. Dr. Smith and Cameron were just to to kind to me. Cameron sat there and answered every crazy question I had to detail. and Dr. Smith smiling the whole time let me know that he has not heard of much pain from any of his paitents and that I am going to do wonderful. So I am getting excited... and Thursday I start my liquid diet.. ugh! lol

LOL i have so much hair I would love to share with you!! I hate my hair sometimes, but once I was told I might lose some of it.. I freaked out LOL go figure... hehehe

Hey Trish I loved the picture you posted. John is a cutie and I'm so glad you have someone wonderful and that he is so suportive of you!!!!

I'm still thinking of you and I know you will do wonderful. I'm so glad to hear that your Dr. appt. went well. I think that should make you feel better that everything is okay........ Now if that dog on band day would just get here....... I'm sitting here waiting with you....... Well its still not here.......... Guess we will be waiting a little longer!!! LOL!!!!!

Trish, we can do this together! same emotions, and banding on the same day. It is good to know I'm not alone in those feelings.

We will look back on this in a few months and laugh at how crazy we were! Last day for food for awhile is Tuesday. Having a party with friends from work. Then drink, drink, drink.

Keep in touch Trish and we can support each other!!! YOU GO SISTA!

Awww Trish, what an awesome picture!!!! Yes, your hubby is VERY cute!

I have had my days of "how stupid could I have been to do this, what was I thinking!!" but mostly now, I'm starting to like MY band...it's becoming mine. So even in my case, it's getting better. You will do fine.

yaaaaaaaaay Trish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jamie - You look good in PINK!! LOL Ahhh my little cheerleader... Your so cool!! ((((((((hugs))))))) I hope I do as good as you!!

Trish - I'm glad to hear your doctor's appointment went well! I know you are excited and nervous, that's normal too. I am getting excited for you too! That time will fly by now! We are counting the days! :):):D

Trish,

You time is on countdown. It will be no time before you come over to Bandland. This is an exciting time for you. Enjoy it and take it slow. Remember someone in your past probably telling you about good things comes to those that wait. And believe me the wait is worth it. Take care.

Sorry I'm just now responding to this thread Trish. I am VERY excited for you and can't wait for your big day! I wish you nothing but the best, and pray that everything goes smoothly for you, and that your journey will get off to a great start.

And yes, your husband IS a cutie pie, and he has a sexy voice too. LOL You got the package deal girl! Good for you! (I'm so bad, aren't I! LOL)
