I feel the same way you feel tomrrow i go an do my blood work an possible if everything runs smooth be banded the following Friday, I think I need to no about after care an the things I will need to get by the pain an gas

Okay I went to my first appt on Dec 7, they called yesterday 1/13 saying I was approved then 2hours later they called back to schedule my pre op, So now that is scheduled for 1/21 following all is well I will get banded the next Friday she stat ed which would be 1/28 okay I have not had a chance to tell my family Im 36 I dont want them to talk me out of this an Im not sure if im being fair to tell or not to tell, things are going so fast whaat do you think when everyone else around you is skinny or healthy an makes like it is all so easy who needs this type of help how do you deal with them or do you shut them out "including hubby"

Okay Im back and I have told my HUSBAND,MOtther and kids an I feel so much better about it im kind of confused thought right now, i go on friday to get the lab work done then they say if all is well the following friday I would get banded when I'm I to start the liquid diets the 24 clear then 24 dark liquids then soft food

Great News to hear Im in the same boat as you I started this Jouney on Dec 7th, They called yesterday 1/13/2011 an stated that I was approved, then the the nurse called like 2hrs later asking if I could come in friday to do my pre op, things are going so fast im going crazy in the head good luck , Also Im not sure what im suppose to be doing right now other then waiting for next week to do blood work then she said it takes a couple days for that to come back an they can get me banded by 1/28/2011 wow now that is really fast right there so fast that my head is spinning like slow down
