Hi out there. I'm scheduled for lap band surgery this Friday (1-9-09) in Juarez, MX by Dr. Jose Rodriguez. I have 70 - 80 pounds to lose. I've been reading everything I can before I go so there won't be any surprises. Some sound good; some sound downright scary. I'm maintaining a good outlook and assuming everything will go perfectly. A few prayers every day don't hurt, right? I'm 57 years old and have been heavy since my mid-20's. I'm sick of it and hope this will be my best chance to get healthier and happier. I live in central Missouri so I have a 3 hour drive to St. Louis airport tomorrow and again when I come back on Sunday. The drive Sunday night is not too appealing.
