Anyone Getting Banded In July?

[mariamaria1070 21]

Hey I on the 17th as well !!!! Yeah !!! 5 more days ... I am NERVOUS !!!!

I hear ya, I had my last shift at work and now I'm just getting ready.....shopping for all that I need so I don't have to do anything but heal! lol Cleaning ahead, laundry ahead of time...How's the pre-op diet going? Today is the 1st day I'm hungry for food, but it's probably because I'm actually sitting still...I'm nervous too, if I think about the actual surgery itself, so I'm just going to preoccupy my mind with things to do!

I'm getting banded on July 25. I'm 2 days in to my 2 week pre op. is hard I'm trying! Ahhhhh ð

I'm so with you!!! Today was my second day of liquids and I swear I could eat my dogs' food! It seems like food is never far from my mind. I have to pray to keep focused. I know I can do this. Help friends!

My procedure date is for July 25, starting my pre-op Meal Replacement tomorrow. I am planing to spiritually and emotionally enjoy the 14 days of only drinking chocolate shakes and Water. Good luck to you guys!

Had mine done yesterday, had a bit of a panic attack but came round really well, The only thing is the trapped wind, hurts really bad, anyone who has had it got any tips to help release this bloody gas!

Thanks very much and good luck for those who still have to get it done!

I'm on the 25th as well. Im not required to do the 2 week of liquids, though I may do it the week before anyway. Good luck to everybody , I can't wait till I'm on the flipside of this procedure. The anticipation is the worst part the pre op life style change has been great though, lost 24 pounds on my own since February . Just by really clean eating & eliminating anything processed. Have a great weekend guys...

What I would do for a turkey burger or turkey hot dog, lol. Man, I want some beef or chicken, might have to have something to get rid of this "want"...Staying busy is the only way to get thru this and make it Tuesday already! lol I'm waiting on my Prescriptions as we speak for surgery and then hitting Walmart for my list of needs, maybe splurg and buy some 45 calorie turkey dogs! I totally understand how nervous you are, it's nice to have people that really understand! Hope you have a good day!
