My date is Dec 17th also, and yes, I am nervous. I went to visit a friend in the hospital on friday only to find out this was the wing that I was going to have my lapband and gallbladder procedure done. I got to see how it will all go down! I even saw my surgeon racing thru the hallways back and forth--he seemed very busy. It's gonna be all right. I think the only pain we will feel is needles and then the afterwards will feel like I have been doing too many sit ups so my surg says. I can handle that with the drugs. I more worried about people seeing me naked and being on my period during surgery! crazy I know! Just think how happy we will be a year from now when we are a lot thinner!We cannot fail! dont even use that word!

You are very welcome! What time is your surgery? Mine is 9am central time, I guess he has a gallbladder to take out before mine. Sounds like the surgery is easy. I went to a support group back in August and a guy was in there that had the surgery the day before and got to go home the same day. He said it was "no big deal". I would probably get to go home the same day but they are telling me that I live too far away to let do that. I live an hour from the hospital. I will be thinking of you that day. My psychologist told me they could give me "something" if I get to anxious about surgery. I think she might have meant a xanax??? I had lasik surgery in 2005. I figure if I could have someone cut on my eyes then I could sure handle something to make my thinner! I have done and tried it all. This is my last resort to a thinner better me! :biggrin: Good luck to youand my God Bless us all! OH wait! He already has! :biggrin:

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
