Mine surgery is tomorrow bright and early 5:45...but that makes me first in, so hopefully I'll be the first to get to go home Friday????...I'll try to up date it I'm not too loopy lol...good night to you all!!

. Are you getting your protein? It helps you to feel fuller longer...I'm schedule for surgery tomorrow, however, had lap band for 7yrs so when I felt hungry drank shake and water...hope this helps! Good luck????

. Can I get Phase 1and 2 on this web site it's really more informative than wht I got from my surgeon. I'm having surgery tomorrow so I would love to get this. Thank you and continued good luck to you!!

. I love Dandridge❤️ we had a camper on Cherokee Lake for 8 yrs and we loved it. I'm having surgery in Kingsport on Thursday and I know what you mean about feeling a little nervous as the day gets closer...but I'm not regretting it just dreading the after pains lol...but we are good ole country girls who are tough from the inside out lol so we got this!!! Good luck and I look forward to hearing from you????

. My husband is the same way! When I got my approval over the phone he said "you know this scares me don't you?" I told him I knew that but I wanted to be healthier and happier (with me) for my grandchildren so I wouldn't do anything that I thought would bd dangerous. He grown to accept it and is even going to stay the night at the hospital with me, and he's never done that when I've been in hospital. I went for pre-op today start clear liquids tomorrow and surgery the 26th, so I'm getting a little nervous but I'm not about to let him know tht lol...good luck and God speed with your surgery.

I'm scheduled for the 26th just finished appt with Dr and pre-admission so I'm super excited and ready to get this show on the road start clear liquids tomorrow...my thoughts and prayers are with us all as we start this new journey!!

I had laparoscopic surgery 18 months ago and was told when those gas pains guest start to place an ice pack on your chest up next to your shoulder which helps they gas dispensate then on 3rd dry use heating pad...I'm going to try it this time I just wish my surgeon friend would have told me this before lol.

. My email is onoyayaof4@yahoo.com I would love to join a Fitbit club...I do so much better seeing wht others are doing. Thanks so Much????

that doesn't sound bad at all...Good Luck!!

I didn't get that chance????I was called on the 10th and told my surgery could be the 26th if I wanted and of course I did????so I took my grandsons to McDonalds for my last supper lol and then started on low-carb, gave up soda and sweets????. I'm on my second day of full liquids and go to my pre-op visits on 23rd then surgery the 26th...I'm very excited for this new chapter in my life!! And I hope we all heal quickly and meet our goals!! Prayers for you all!!

So glad for you!! I hope to do half as good???? where did you get the water enhancement at Walmart? I looked in food and pharmacy and didn't see it...what does it come in.

Congrat???????? so glad you're doing good!!

Anytime @ "Annesia" and try not to worry too much lol!! I had a lap band removed 18 months ago...due to slippage...and it was done laparoscopically I was pretty sore for about 3 days, however, it wasn't horrible????

. I work in OR and they definitely put you to sleep before intubation and extubate you before you wake up!! All the bad stuff you sleep through and it only feels like you've been asleep for a few minutes...thank goodness...even if it's hours. Good luck to you all????

I'm so excited for all of you guys getting sleeved today....I will keep you in my prayers!! My surgery is scheduled for March 26th so I'm very excited to here how yours go, so please keep us updated.????

Hi arc!! I had the exact same problems with my band 18 months ago...when a CT was done they found it had slipped to the other side of my stomach...surgeon said worst he had seen. I've since gain almost back to my pre-band wt and I scheduled for a sleeve March 26th...maybe they can replace your band and all will be fine. Then bands had improved in the last 5 yrs. good luck and best wishes????
