I had a tummy tuck 15 months ago and I was just banded on January 10, 2008. My doctor said there was no problem and he was right, everything went fine.

Well tomorrow is the day!! I am so excited and nervous, I have followed my pre-op diet 100%, but I am so worried. I know this is the right thing to do...I just wish I could fast forward to about three months in the future!!!

Best of luck to you! I love the idea of 'spoiling' yourself the night before! We are pretty close in weightloss goals, we should keep in touch.

Thanks Mal....Dr. K is so nice, and his office staff is the best!

Thank you everyone for the words of encouragement... I guess we are all in this for the same reasons...and we all will be at this point sometime, thanks to all of you that have been through it and are making me feel better!! Citygirl, what city are you in? I get banded at 3:00 tomorrow-how about you? I am so hungry--but it will be worth it!!!

Chrissann, How are you feeling at three days out? I am being banded January 10th, I was thinking of you on New Year's Eve since you were the "first" in the January group. Hope all is well with you. Charlotte

Hi Hilary, I too am being banded on January 10th in Aurora, Colorado. I will start my pre-op diet on New Years Day, I have to do a low-carb for ten days prior to the banding. I am so excited and also a bit hesitant...I know this is for the best. Best of luck too you!! Charlotte
