WEnt to SR today and bought liquids for first week or two. Snapple, juice to water down and sports drinks. HOpe Eric and Nick don't drink them all. I am going to make my favorite pizza tonight for dinner. I won't be able to hav it again fro quite a while. So nervous about missing food. How do people do this???? I can't stand it but I have to do it. The thought of it makes me crazy. Expecially the liquid and mushy stages for a few weeks not days. Then I won't even lose weight until my first fill from what I read over and over. Will see.l

Talked to Carmen at work today. She had bypass and lost 110 lbs. Wow, that's alot. surprised she spoke to me about it though. I'm still nervous. Hate the anasthesia. Eric is making me crazy. Last night he said he will just drop me off. Not his problem I'm doing this he says. What a jerk when he drinks. Oh but what abut how great I'll look later on and how much mor energy I should have. I should be healthier too. I want to be able to have energy and play with Nicholas more God I hate being fat. I can't wait until this is over. But the liquid stage maked me nervous. Think of it as healing not weight loss at first they say. Mom and dad leaving for Florida on Friday morning. Stopped in by dad to say have a nice trip. Mom is working of course. Will call her before she goes. Also will keep in touch while they are away. Wish I could go with them!! Gonna clean the office now. Want everything clean before I go to hospital because I know I won't be able to do it later on.

I called Dr's office yesterday to see if surgery was approved by insurance company. Nibia said yes Oxford approved the surgery and I am to be there at 6:30 am on Valentines day for 8:30 surgery. Wow, I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I'm scard to be put to sleep again, hat that feeling and throwing up when I wake up. BUT I can't wait to get thinner. Thin no but thinner would be great! I know I will miss the tast of many of my favorite foods. God how am I going to do liquids for 2 weeks??? I know Eric is going to go crazy with me having yet another surgery. I feel bad because he's been through so much with me over the years.

My surgery date is Valentines day! scared and need to calm down
Nickysmom posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
:help: Hi bandsters. I am excited yet very nervous! MYSURGERY DATE IS SET FOR vALENTINES DAY. I wet for my PAT's today all should be fine for medical clearance my tomorrow. Dr did it as a stat order since it is due tomorrow. BUT I'm scared!!!! Not having 2nd thoughts but still scary. I want to lose more then 1-2 lbs a week, I am determined not to cheat and can't wait until I lose a little so I can exercise. Anyone else scard out there? I will have surgery at Hackensack Medical Center in NJ with Dr Schmidt who is highly reccommended. His bedside manner was kind of boring at our initial consultation but I have heard others say he's so great. Please help me calm down. Thanks -
I went to Dr DeMuro today for B/W and EKG. Also went to PBI for chext Xray. Hopefully Dr will send Medical clearance letter to Dr Schmidt tomorrow. Surgery date is still on for Valentines day. Almost lost it due to carelessness and not reading the due date on my form. Whew..close call.

HI. I am new. I am glad I found this site. It looks very informative. I am meeting with my surgeon on Jan 19 and already scheduled for Feb 14th. Yep, no chocolate for Valentines day this year. I went to the orientation meeting and already scheduled my initial visit and surgery date. I had to schedule already because I'm off in February for winter break. If I change my mind I'll cancel but I really want to do this. I don't know how to post my own intro message so I thought this was a great place to start.
