Blahhhhh

Congrats on making the choice. I am getting banded tomorrow morning. Believe me, I am sooooo ready to have half my syptoms go away. I am currently getting laser hair removal for my face, I have had 2 sessions out of 6. Which is what I will need to eliminate all my facial hair, in which I can probably grow a freaking beard! Not to mention I am fair skinned and dark dark hair. THE WORST! I have it in several other places too! Ewwww!

Good luck to all the people getting banded tomorrow!! I am getting banded at 9:30 am! Absolutely cannot wait! Hope to make it back to work on Monday!

haha! I am gettling banded Friday as well! I am so ready, this two weeks of clear liquids has been hell!

My surgery date is Jan 25! Was aiming for Dec. 21 since I had met my deductible for the year already but I went out of town for the holidays instead! I am on day 3 of my pre-op diet and it has been an emotional roller coaster! I have to do two weeks of full liquids. (EAS Advatage meal replacement shakes, 4-6 a day, water or crystal light and broth/bouillon) I was crying last night because I wanted food so bad! I made some chicken, talked with a friend, and ended pouring bleach on the chicken as well as down my cereal box. I have read a lot that it does get better once your stomach gets adjusted to the diet! Hope this is true!!

I have to do a two week liquid diet as well! Started yesterday and surgery day is the 25th of this month! How did you get through it? I am taking the shakes, and drinking tons of water! Any advice?
