Nervous BUT Excited

[sistercin 5]

Hello everyone! I'm scheduled for this Friday(April 19)... I'm nervous, but excited. My doctor did not put me on a liquid diet, just no sugar and lots of Protein. Has anyone out there had this same type of pre op? Also, I'm looking to lose 45-60lbs. I'm only 5"2 and weigh in at 210 give or take. My BMI is 39.5 and I'm self pay. Is there anyone out there that needs or had the band done with my similarities?...again, I'm nervous, but hope this is one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health....hope to hear from someone soon...Thanks!....Sistercin

I'm also 5'2 I was 230 now I'm 218 and my surgery is Monday. My goal is about 80 lbs. I am on a liquid diet and I'm dying. I have the worst headache and feel weak.

Congratulations on the best decision you'll ever make. I had my surgery 3 years ago in March and have lost 80 lbs. My beginning weight was 265. I feel great, I exercise and "it is" the best decision I've ever made. Good Luck. You're going to do great!
