It is exactly 1 week before my surgery on Sept 3rd. I am still on my UNJURY protein shakes which have helped me loose weight... and I am hoping to loose about 15 more pounds prior to surgery so wish me luck!

So far only 1 of my closest friend knows and I plan on keeping it that way. I went to a pre surgery workshop yesterday which helped me in understanding the whole surgery procedure and I can honestly say 'I CANT WAIT TO GET BANDED' the wait is killing me.

Good luck to everyone else who is banded or on the journey to being banded.

This is a crazy weekend for me becuase I am moving from one apartment to another, and hoping to have everything moved and situated prior to my surgery... can I say stress much.

Good luck :thumbup:

You have a lot on your plate. Try to keep the focus. Stay calm and it all will happen in due time. It is so exciting the LB journey I must say. I got banded a month early I only had two days to prepare my self and my head. It was a nightmare for real. A spot opened up on a Monday and I was asked on a Friday if I wanted the spot!!! Heck Ya!!!!! It is so worth all the effort you have to go thru. We are all here for you so let us know how you are doing. Best wishes and Happy moving. imaluckydog

good luck with your band! it really is a great tool if you learn how to work it, i havn't quite done that yet, 8 months after being banded so use me as an example and educate yourself now on anything and everything! i'm sure everything will work out great! i've lost 70 pounds and it makes a difference in everything i do. but my only advice is educate yourself!
