We all need to keep in touch with one another. My email is clkst5@aol.com Good luck to all of you. Are you all as nervous as I am? Because I got to tell you, I am really nervous!

July 29th at 0700 is my surgery date also (in Phoenix). I'm traveling from Albuquerque to get it done .( No lap band MD in Albuquerque) . Hope I don't have any complications. I'm also nervous and excited. Can't wait to get started on a new way of eating and living, but kind of scared also. :biggrin2:

trialsnurse - I am your biggest supporter!!!! :ohmy: I am soooo excited that it is finally your turn. Can you imagine our before and after pics at Christmas.

July 29th bandsters: Good Luck!!! And get ready for a new you. :blushing:

Get up and walk asap after surgery to help keep the gas at bay.

(I did use a few Gas-X strips.) I did not think it was that bad. But, I compare it to my hysterectomy 3 1/2 years ago. Hysterectomy was really rough. Lapband not so bad. Walking was the big key. I did not do it for the hysterectomy. It thought the gas would kill me:ohmy:

hi & welcome to LBT.
