Hi All,

Well, it's finally here! I'm getting banded tomorrow morning. I've lost 9.5 lbs in 10 days thanks to the pre-op liquid diet. I've been riding my bike and working the program so to speak. I'm strangely calm tonight and tired. I'm sure the nerves will kick in as I'm riding over 1.5 hours to get to the Surgery Center. This will be my new beginning. I'm excited to finally get this weight off for good! Wish me luck...and I'll post just as soon as I can.

Good luck to you tomorrow. The surgery will go much better than you think. It is the fear of the unknown that gets us all worked up.

Let us know how it goes. I am excited and happy for you!!!

Good luck to you Ariane.

I expected surgery to be worse than it actually was. Everything will be fine. Let us know how it went when you get a chance.
