Thank you! I'm feeling calm, ready and just a little excited. :-) The hard part will be jumping up early and hitting the shower first thing while still groggy. I've been trying to adjust my sleeping hours, so maybe it won't be so bad. :thumbup:

Orea

Hi Orea and everyone getting banded tomorrow! Good luck to all of us!

Good luck Orea from me too, you wouldnt need my luck, looks like you are surrounded with friends wishing you luck that you have already made.

I couldnt eat from 10 pm the night before and didnt have my surgery until the afternoon, I was starving by then. I had to get up early like you too. You will get thru this, then its all downhill.

I'll take all the good wishes and prayers I can get! LOL I believe those things really make a difference.

I'm hoping my surgery time doesn't get pushed back. That would be miserable!

I can eat - or rather, drink, and I am on liquids today - until midnight (and take my morning meds later with just enough water to get them down), but I hope to be fast asleep long before then! :wink2: I swear, my body knows something is up, I am SO HUNGRY today!

Good luck from me too, Orea. I am getting banded on the 31st. Please keep me in your thoughts and I will do the same for you. Take care and let us know how it goes for you.

Just wanted to wish everyone getting banded with me tomorrow good luck. I can't believe the time is finally here. Hugs to you all :wink2:

Shonda

I am praying for you a successful surgery and speedy recovery.

Orea, Where are you from in Va? I'm from the eastern shore...you don't by any chance, go to Delmarva BaRIATRICS do you??? I'l pray for you as well as myself for tomorrow! We should chat! Angie

p,s. wouldn't it be funny if we were both getting our surgery at the same place? (PRMC)

I'm in Northern VA. I'll be at the Fair Oaks Hospital in Fairfax. Great place, from what I have seen so far. 10 AM according to the schedule.

Thanks for your prayers!

Sandy, you've got it! :wink2: I'll post as soon as I can. We are on the threshold of a new life!

Hugs,

Orea

Good luck tomorrow Sandy, I am getting banded tomorrow also.

Sue

Thanks Sue, Just met with the surgeon for my pre-op and surgery is at 1:00 tomorrow 7/31 with Dr. Kirshenbaum in Colorado. I traveled here from Florida, where I live now, but I am a native Long Islander.

I wish you much luck also. Keep in touch and we can compare notes.

Thanks Orea, this truly will be a new beginning for us. I just met with my surgeon for my pre-0p and everything is a go for tomorrow. Hope you are doing well. Keep me posted.

Hi Shonda, good luck tomorrow. I am also getting banded in Colorado. Met with my surgeon today and everything is a go. Keep in touch and we can compare notes. Tomorrow will be a new beginning for us. Take care and best wishes.
