Oh Zoe thanks so much for coming to the rescue I was really worried doralisa wouldn't get back to me in time. I really appreciate it. I just got back from my sisters she cooked me my favorite, Mexican food. I dont think I'll be eating much of that even though I will be there. Well looks like I am all ready. I went to Target tonight to get tons of comfortable capri soft pants for after my surgery and to wear down there. I also took advice and got a travel pillow for the plain as well as the tank tops with the built in bras. I have heard its hard to wear a bra depending where your port is. So looks like I'm all set. I am in good spirits I feel band though my mom and family are very worried for me. My mother and I are very close she has an ulcer from worring. She said Im her "little girl". She wants me to tell Dr. Rumbaut that my mommy said to please take care of her little girl and that loves me very much....lolol shes cute. tomorrow I will pack then I am off......

Hey Zoe could you give me Dr Rumbauts cell number and the office number? I emailed doralisa that I needed that info again before I go just in case The guy that is sposto meet me at the air port isnt there. I am worried cause what would i do?

oh Thank you so much guys I love the support and thanks for the hugs I have been getting alot of them latley. I need them. People have been very supportive both here and co-workers and family. Its great I know I am going to need you guys through this. Thanks alot!!! ((((huggs)))) right back at you!

Pam I am getting banded in 6 days I am freaking out! I am going to Dr. Rumbaut. Good luck with your surgery!

Hey Zoe I rush home everyday to read your post hoping you have one. I think you for some strange reason are part of my strength right now... even though I dont know you...oololol. I am just very nervous and anxious. I am glad you are doing so well. May I ask what your inscisions look like? is it hard to find clothes that dont hurt? Gosh its hard enough getting dressed for work now and everything is tight let alone trying to find something that isnt. well another day closer tomorrow I am going to attempt going to sleep.

by the way that response was to new hope. zoe hang in there. Do you think I will be able to go back to work in a 6 days after surgery? I am a hair dresser.

lolol... Thats funny I am planning a wedding now next year I will be getting married. I am just finding its hard to concentrate on what im doing at work. I am just so anxcious.

7 days until banding for me. I had a dream last night that I was in Mexico with Dr. Rumbaut getting banded. The whole experience was so real. And my belly was so sore I guess I was really feeling what Zoe was saying. I was so bummed out when I woke up and it wasent over. I didnt have my band yet..... well soon enough. But hey My experience in my dream was not to bad.

I am so glad everything went well I was worried about you. Please keep us posted with your progress. Well at least you have that behind you. I went to the market tonight buying stuff for when I get back from mexico. Like smoothies and all that. what are you eating right now?

I have been thinking about you alot. Couldnt wait to hear how you did. Any info would be great I am going to be with dr. Rumbaut next week. Was it all what you thought? I will keep you in my thoughts. looking forward to talking more.

she was to be banded on aug.23 with dr rumbaut? I was just worried about her wondering if anyone heard?

Well I'm off in 10 days to monterrey to get banded by Dr. Rumbaut. I'm starting to freak out I can't believe its here already. I must say, I find myself eating alot. thinking I dont know if i will be able to ever eat many of my favorites again. I am getting pretty sick of stuffing my face anyways. I have got to kiss my friend "pigging out" good-bye. any last minute words of encouragement...? Did anyone else start having sleepless nights thinking about there banding?

Thanks guys I just cant believe its just next week. I cant wait!!! I just want to be on my way through this journey!

Hey Zoe, I am going sept. 7th with Dr. Rumbaut. I am so excited to hear from you and how was it. I am getting really nervous. Was it all everyone on here says it is? please please let me know!!

Thank you so much for your support. It is so nice to have !! I cant thank you all enough!!!!!!!! Actually I just got off the phone with my sister and someone was telling her at her job about the todays show yesterday, it was about lap band. See I had heard it was supportive of the band. her friend told her that some girl died because she was pregnate and she was gettin sick and died. Did anyone see this show? I am thinking she is mixing it up with the bypass. people love to be alarmest dont they...

I am getting banded by Dr. Rumbaut on September 8th. Is anyone else going to be there that same time?

I have not been banded yet but I too have never been one for working out. However I am a fish so I found water arobices to be great. Where else are we weightless! that alone is enough to make you plunge into the pool. Well is for me anyways! Alot of community centers and ymca's offer it. Try it its great. And its all old lady's so you wont feel uncomfortable.

Oh thanks so much I cant wait. I am getting nervous Its just the unknown. And even though when I tell people that I am going to mexico I am sure you know the response I get. But I feel really good about Dr. Rumbaut. Is Rafael a doctor? I am really looking forward to my new life. Then there is always that feeling that everything else failed, its to good to be true. Hopefully this will be a new beginning. Hey the way I see it as long as my legs dont rub anymore and my feet dont hurt I'll be happy! lol:D

Were you happy with Dr. Rumbaut. I am going to him September 7th. I would love to hear about your trip there. Our starting weight and height are almost the same. I cant believe how much weight you have lost that is great!!!!! I would be so happy to have such awsome progress. Any down sides at this time? keep us the good work!

I am also all scheduled for surgery with Dr. Rumbaut I am going on September 7th surgery on the 8th and back on the 10th. I would love to keep in touch and you can let me know how you did. Yeah all of his patients stay at the Hampton Inn. When is your surgery?
