It's fairly certain that I'll be having the surgery in the beginning of February, any one else out there making the biggest change in the shortest month?

:thumbup:Hi,I am scheduled for my band on Feb.5th. I go for all my pre-op testing tomorrow morning.

Now that it is almost here,I am starting to get anxious,and a little nervous.I REALLY want this to work!!! I know it is just a tool and I am ready to do the work!

I've been watching tons of videos on You Tube and gobbling up all kinds of information........

We can do this!

I am seriously thinking about having lap band surgery this year (hopefully Mar/Apr 09. I have been to the free seminar but that is about it so far except a lot of internet research. I have heard more positive then negative regarding the band. Good luck on your surgery in Feb. :tongue2:

Congrats, I got my surgery February 2008, Best decision I ever made.
