BigBander 0 Posted June 2, 2008 Hey guys, It's been a while since I've posted but I'm back. I have finished all my pre-op stuff and got approved. My surgery is scheduled for 7/3, it could have been 6/19 but that wasn't a good date for me. I'm am nervous I think. Not sure what I am feeling, I just left my doctor's office for my final pre-op appointment. Tell me some good sutff if you have a minute! Tanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mediummike 0 Posted June 2, 2008 Its all good ! Surgery for the most part, will be a breeze (in respect to others - easier for some than for others). But definitely a quick procedure and quick recovery. Its natural to be a bit nervous - most people are - but the band has been a great tool for me and many others on this post, as I'm sure it will be for you.

Fenton 3 Posted June 2, 2008 Don't sweat the surgery - it's a really minor one. Besides, they do all the work! You just lie there, and wake up banded. The first couple of days aren't much fun, but no worse than a day or two with the flu. After that, you'll recover quickly and lose quickly... Welcome aboard!
