Thanks so much for the well wishes!! I am not nervous yet, but I am sure I will be a wreck tomorrow morning on that drive to the hospital. I am looking forward to a new life!! I will post again on the flip side!!

Good luck to everyone tomorrow!

Thanks!

I am so excited!! Getting a little nervous though. I also hope I have a speedy recovery, I don't have much down time. I am hoping Monday I can get around pretty good. I have had 4 C-sections, so I think I know what the pain will be like, sitting up, laying down and so forth.

I have to drink magnesium citrate today and thats it, nothing else except clear, sugarfree liquids. Hope I make through the day.

The hardest thing for me so far is not being able to drink diet coke!! It's been over a week!! Getting a little grabby :) My new life with be way better then the Diet Coke!

Thank you for the well-wishes. Suprisingly I have a calmness over me. Calm mind and calm body.

Ever since I received my date 6 weeks ago I had been a nervous wreck, to the point where I could not focus on my work. Now, I'm getting stuff done and tackling all the hard stuff before I leave today.

I've met with so many people and have went over what to expect so many times with my facility that I'm not nervous. I know I'm in good hands.

Good Luck to the rest of us!!!

God speed to all you 21ster’s! It is your time and you will do great.

Jessenia, I had the same experience. I was banded on the 14th and it was inexplicable but when I woke up on the 13th I had an amazing quiet and calmness about me. I think it was because after 6 months of chasing this thing it finally sunk in that it was here.

I am very excited but nervous about tomorrow. I have been waiting for 6 months for this day to come. I am ready to start losing weight. I will post again when I am on the other side.

I'm getting banded tomorrow also. I'm ready and excited to get this new part of my life moving. :thumbup: Thanks for the well wishes!!!

I hope everything went well for all those banded today! I am so glad that I found the "August All-Stars"! I am to be banded on the 28th!

What a wonderful journey! Don't know what I would do without this forum!
