MarcyD 0 Posted May 12, 2006 :help: Monday, the 15th, is my banding day. Took care of the rest of my pre-op stuff yesterday. Now I just have to get through work today and tomorrow and then Sunday is Clear liquids and bowel prep. (Happy Mother's Day to me, right?!) I would appreciate any positive vibes you can send my way. I have never had surgery before and I am starting to stress! TIA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCBSTX 0 Posted May 12, 2006 Marcy, your almost there!!!! It's perfectly normal to be stressed. I am one that went over all of the possibilities both good and bad. Definetely the good outweighs the bad!!! Before surgery, I was hesistant and nervous that I would be the only person to be banded and NOT loose weight. Well, it didn't happen that way...thank goodness. Happy Mother's Day!!! Shawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iluvharleys 15 Posted May 13, 2006 It's only normal to be scared, worried, and excited. Just try to keep busy, it will be over and you will be in bandland before you know it. Good luck, and let us know how you are when you can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
