March 3rd is the date for me!



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for lapband placement on March 3, 2009 in Phoenix Arizona! OMG I don't think I have been this scared and excited at the same time in my entire life. I have a wonderful family that has supported me the entire way. They would not let me give up on myself, even when fear set in! I hope the next week goes by super fast, before I have time to chicken out! Please feel free to drop me a few lines of support! Thanks!

my date is the 3rd also. I'm not so worried about the surgery or recovery time, it's more about getting used to eating post band. I'm sure you'll do fine, I'll look forward to your posts after surgery letting us know how you make out.

Less than 2 days to go. How's your pre-op diet going? I'm on a two week pre-op, today and tomorrow are Clear Liquids only. Before I could have Protein Shakes and 1 Protein Bar. I've seen a wide range of diets, some only 1 week, some with only the last two days. Today I met someone going this week, who didn't have any pre-op diet at all.

At this point is just getting through tomorrow, go to hospital in early a.m. Good luck.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
