Hello! I'm a newbie here. Well, I'm getting banded on July 28th by Dr. David Kim at North Hills Bariatric in North Richland Hills, Texas (Ft. Worth area). And if it doesn't come soon I'm going to be big as a BARN as every dang meal I eat is as though it's my last

Congrats on your surgury date. I know the feeling. I felt the same way. But I did look like a barn!

Congrats on your surgery date. I know exactly what your saying about the last meal, I did the same thing. My surgery is in 3 days and it has seemed to take forever to get here. I have been doing my pre-op diet for the past two weeks and it is really easier than I thought it was going to be. So just relax until the time comes for you to start your pre-op diet, and then you can do that too. Good luck to you on your journey.:thumbup:

:thumbup:How are you doing since the banding. I too went out and had my last meal, I tried to savor every moment of it. Today is my first day that I have felt any where normal, had my banding on July 28th also. I think this first week post op is going to be easier than the next week as I am feeling better every day and my appetite is coming back. Good luck to you.

Hey! Glad to hear you're doing good. Me too! Although I had a hiata (spell?) hernia, but he was able to repair it. BONUS!!! Running a low-grade temp but I hear that's normal for the first few weeks for some people. Makes you feel bad, though. Not real hungry yet, though (thank goodness). Wonder how long that will last? Anyway, HAPPY ONE-WEEK ANNIVERSARY TO US!
