    Lap Band Fills In El Paso, Tx?

    I just had my first fill yesterday, and will be moving to El Paso in a week. So if anyone knows a good Fill dr. in el paso, please advise. I may need another fill in about 2 months. Thanks! -Adriana-
  4. One more week till surgery day!!! Can't wait...the anticipation is killing me now!

  5. Hey Amanda!

    Thanks for the add. Wish my pre-op diet allowed me to eat solids :( How have the last few days gone?

  6. Thank you for your post! I was reading through some other threads last night and did come to the conclusion (which I had already set my mind to anyhow) that this is the right choice for me. I'm just a very anxious/ nervous person and over-reading sometimes gets me in trouble lol. I do appreciate the straight-forward responses and I'm glad your journey has begun on the right foot! Best of luck to you! Now I just need to add a signature!

    Anxiety & 2nd thoughts.

    All these posts are great! I too was going through "cold feet" with my surgery date scheduled 3/28/11. HOWEVER, reading the posts really reaffirmed what I already knew...I need this for me! I've done so much research and put so much work into the process to turn back now. And I can't forget that my daughter is the main reason why I'm doing this. She is my motivation, and I will not allow myself to back down now! So there! Take that anxiety and fear! Now, time for some zzzz's. Sometimes we read too much...lol
  8. Day 3 pre-op diet: SUCCESS!!! Time for bed...anxiety is keeping me up!

  9. Hello, My name is Adriana and I'm scheduled for surgery in one and a half weeks! I'm so very excited but have many worries about things I've read online. I'm one of those people that loves to read, so I'm pretty sure I'm overdoing it on the reading and research...but I'd rather be over-prepared and know what to expect or what is possible then under-preparing and then being surprised about something. Should I be concerned? Or are most of the side effects due to the patient not adhering to the "rules"? I've also found it really interesting to read about how many members have cheated on their pre-op diet. I'm honestly scared not to follow the directions the dr. has given (even with the cravings that have crept up on me) and I'm REALLY scared about the whole food getting stuck/ vomiting posts. I'm just wondering what the cause is because I don't want to experience all these awful things, if I'm doing everything I'm supposed to be doing. My other fear, of course, is dying on the surgical table. I'm fairly healthy, starting at 250 lbs with borderline High BP but no diagnosed Diabetes yet and no "major" issues to report. My main motivation is to take action on weight loss to be a better role model for my daughter and also to have the energy and body to be able to play with her more. Then I ask myself, what if I die in a surgery that wasn't required? Am I risking it all to end up leaving her alone? IS IT WORTH IT? Obviously I'm going through a lot of thoughts now that the surgery date is so near. Please reply back with your thoughts...I'd love to hear what you have to say.
  10. So excited to have some support through my new journey!
