sagreenia 0 Posted August 7, 2010 Hello, I am going to get the band on august 17 in Tijauna. I am very nervous and have been thinking of it for about 18 months my insurance would have paid for RNY but I just could not do that one. To scary for me. Pray all will go well for me.:party: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pray all will go well for me.:party: I was just wondering where you were going to get banned? I am going down on the 14th and leaving the 17th. I will be praying for you. I am super excited and have been on this forum off and on all day because today is a stressful day for the liquid diet for me. I just come on here to read and take my mind off the hunger. So good luck and keep in touch. Tiffany Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StillNoRegrets83 0 Posted August 8, 2010 That is awesome. I am not quite sure how or why but they are doing mine on a Saturday. I have a 2 week liquid diet and today has been a little easier for the cravings but oh my am I getting sick of the options. I would have loved to only have 7 days lol. It doesn't help much that every time I turn around someone else in my house is cooking something different. So my new found love is gum. Really helps with the food aspect of it all. I can not believe in 6 days I will be in Mexico, banned and beginning this process of a healthier life with the changes I am making. So yay for all of us.
