5 Days Until Banding and I'm a WRECK!

[BeckyinTexas 3]

It's the strangest thing....I border on about to break down and sob myself to pieces to being so giddy I can hardly stand it....am I losing it or what????? Day after tomorrow and I so hope everything goes well. I told myself to not read anything that would scare me but I'm hardheaded even to myself and I did....now all I can think about are the cases that had problems. Someone want to give me a swift kick in the right direction?

Becky, as soon as Zoe shows up with her size 11 boots... Becky, both my DH and I had a great recovery. The worst pain I had was from cramping from my period. My DH was in the hospital for several days, but he is a very special case--he weighed 600 pounds when he was finally banded.

Most of the people who get the band have very few complications!

Becky - Please don't dwell on the few that had problems, the majority of us didn't have any problems at all. You will do just fine!

Tomorrow is the beginning of the new and improved Becky! I had my preop visit yesterday and the doctor made me feel so much better. I'm just ready to get the show on the road! Thanks again to everyone for all the support! Only 25 hours and 45 minutes and counting!!!!!

You guys have helped me more than I can begin to say! Just hang in there with me cause I'm thinking I'll still have lots of questions for y'all! God bless all of you! Well, the next time I post...I'll be a member of the banded...one of the best bunch of people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing!
