Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope all went well for you. Post when you feel better!

Congratulations on getting your band. It sounds as if your doing really good. Glad you had no problems and I hope your recovery is quick for you! keep us posted on your recovery and weight loss!

Penni ~ Thanks for the offer but I think Memphis is further than you think it is like 3 hours from Nashville. It would be great to meet you but thats alot of extra driving for you!

Gosh I feel like I gotta fan club!!! You guys are wonderful to put up with my long thread for 18 days... just think it is already down to only 9 days left. I'm so excited. Thank you for all the support I've received from this thread. I think coming here each day is helping me realize I'm finally getting somewhere.Getting to this point has been a long process for me and its finally coming to the end of the wait...and the begining of a life worth living WELL!!! Thank you all (((HUGS))))

Vinesqueen~ Please believe me when I say I know how you feel. I was so upset that I was going to have to get my Gallbladder removed the week I thought I would get my band. Instead I had to have that done first and come home and wait a month to get my band . Still 9 days to go till that gets here. The worst thing about the gallbladder surgery was it was unexpected and my mother who lives next door to me and has always been here for me was on a cruise when I got the news that my gallbladder had to be removed imediatley. I was so upset and scared and felt really alone (even thou my husband was there with me with all the love and support he could offer) I felt alone during that time without my mother. I had lots of sleep less nights that week and longed to come home without my gallbadder and with my band,but no I have to have two surgerys to get that band. I think that now that I went through all of that this band surgery its self seems easier to me and therefore I'm not as nervous or upset about this as I was the gallbladder surgery. I've had so many people say they are a simular surgerys that I'm really not scared about it like you are. I guess in a way I've had a trial run you know. That has been better for me because I can be so excited at such a special mile stone in my life. I 'm ready to get this band and start this new journey AND YOU ARE TOO!! YOU CAN DO THIS GIRL! Just think about how you will feel after losing weight THATS PLENTY OF REASON TO DANCE!! GET UP AND DANCE WITH ME!!! LETS DO THE BOOGIE BAND DANCE. This should be a time you feel releived that weight loss help is on its way. I know your scared and I was to,and I'm sure I will still be a little nervous and axious on march 18th my band day. But we will get through this and we will be so glad we did. I'm sending calming (((HUGS ))) your way. Take a deep breath /relax and then get up and dance with me!!!! I'm here for you if you need to talk pm me okay!! Jamie
