Getting banded tomorrow



Recommended Posts

Well tomorrow is the day!!

I am so excited and nervous, I have followed my pre-op diet 100%, but I am so worried.

I know this is the right thing to do...I just wish I could fast forward to about three months in the future!!!

Hi...I am getting banded tomorrow too I am so hungry right now. I have been on a 48 hour, clear liquid only diet since Monday night (broth, Jello, apple juice, etc.) I am pretty excited right now, but know by the morning my nerves will kick in. A fast forward 3 months sounds nice about now!

Girls,

You will do wonderful. Relax tonight and look through the before and after thread. I did, made me so excited. Good luck and let us know you are doing.

GOOD LUCK! I'll be thinking about ya tomorrow, I go on Jan 16th.

I've sure learned something on this 10-day LowCarb liquid diet, seems like the weight is melting off of me. I'm barely taking any medicine for diabetes because my bloodsugar is almost normal, haven't seen that for years.

Jan 16th will be banded by Dr. Cook at Frye Medical in North Carolina

Good luck all, my date is 15th. So excited, not nervous yet. My surgery was booked within 2 weeks of my first appointment with the surgeon, so I haven't had the chance to be nervous!

Good luck,

Jen

Thank you everyone for the words of encouragement...

I guess we are all in this for the same reasons...and we all will be at this point sometime, thanks to all of you that have been through it and are making me feel better!!

Citygirl, what city are you in? I get banded at 3:00 tomorrow-how about you? I am so hungry--but it will be worth it!!!

Hi Char...I am getting my surgery in Atlanta, at Dekalb Medical Center. I have to be there at 8am for a 10am surgery. I just took a long, hot bath to get my mind of the blinding hunger. It definitely worked! Now I am doing the full on beauty treatments....mask, mani, pedi., scrubs....anything until I fall asleep!

Good luck! Catch up w/ you Friday!

Best of luck to you!

I love the idea of 'spoiling' yourself the night before!

We are pretty close in weightloss goals, we should keep in touch.

It's going to be good! If you're feeling nervous at all, don't be afraid to tell your doc. They are used to that and will fix you right up.
