spdonahue 0 Posted October 7, 2008 I am a 37 year old female who is scheduled for lap band a week from today. I am a little scared of the surgery and am starving because I am only taking in liquids per the doctor in order to shrink my liver. Can anyone tell me how the surgery was?

OctoberGal 0 Posted October 8, 2008 Welcome to the October group, the "Smashing Pumpkins" :wub: I'm a lot older than you but will be taking the same journey as my scheduled date for surgery is the 28th provided I passed the stress test I went through last week -- will find out Thursday at my surgeons required physical just prior to having the procedure. Have been reading everything I can for the last couple of weeks -- some of it excites me and some of it scares me but knowledge is strength!:wub: If you'll go to the "search" box at the top, right of the page and ask for Surgery Day Stories you be able to read about several banders experiences. Very interesting. -- will be looking for your story in days to come. Best wishes to you on your journey! Roxiann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spdonahue 0 Posted October 8, 2008 Thank you Roxiann for the tip. I had a very hard time tonite on my way home, I was very moody, I had to go to the grocery store to get some whey Protein and all I smelled was food, I am sooooo hungry. I wish you luck I am sure you will be banded by the end of the month:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
