I'm not banded yet, that is next friday. Scared/can't wait// really scared/, nervous/ can't wait!!! Well you get what I'm going through. I'm currently on the Meditrim shakes. Not bad.

I know this is the right thing for me I just hate being put to sleep. I'm not sure if that makes any sense, but ...

Thanx for letting me talk.

it was stupid

I, too, am new to all of this. You summed up the feelings perfectly! I also don't like being put to sleep in anticipation of pain on the other side! You will do great coz you have a positive attitude and acknowledge your true feelings. Next Friday is amazing...I don't have approval or a date yet. I'm thinking it will be in September. I am worried about how much work I will have to miss since I work at a school...every day matters. But I know, my health comes first. Best of luck next week. What are you doing about your husband/family's food?

yes, I am feeling the same way. I just started a thread asking if others were on the pre-op emotional teeter-totter.

I think we all feel basically the same...it was a long road that got us here, and there is a sharp turn just up ahead..

yay for us!

Thank you for the good thoughts and words. I appreciate them. This time next week...

As for husband, kids and food, I'm a very lucky woman. My husband is retired and does all of the cooking and cleaning etc. I will just sit with them and drink my clear broth!! mmmm

One really awesome thing today is that my clean just washed jeans are too big. I like them to be a bit tight so my belly doesn't show so much. Today they are baggy. Without me wearing them!!! It was a really good moment.

Have a great day/weekend.
