Funny I was told no dark or bright polish of any color but light or semi sheer color was fine. I also have acrylic on my nails and they said that was fine.

Hi guys,

Mine is a week from today, the 27th. You guys are sooo good with your pre-op stuff. I didn't hava a pre-op diet, so I just want to eat everything in sight because I know I can't eat it again.

Ditto on all of the above. I'm excited, but at the same time I keep thinking OMG am I really doing this? And the answer is yes. After seven months of jumping through hoops, I'm not changing my mind now. Everything lines up here, and now, it may not again.

I like what someone posted on another thread; if we meet the criteria the medical folks set, then we should be doing this.

Good luck to everyone. Keep posting it really helps. My husband is really supportive, but he isn't a mayo BANDido.

I too am getting the butterflies. I leave tomorrow for MX and the surgery is Fri morning! I can't believe after all these years of wanting this, it's FINALLY here!!! And of course, I am now going thru the "is this what I really want" phase/doubt. But I know that it really is!! I won't be home until Sunday but I look forward to checking the board upon my return to see how everyone is doing!!

Good luck to all of us!

Ditto all the above. Having my last supper in a few minutes. :Yep, this time tomorrow we'll all be banded. What the heck are we doing????? Oh yeah, I forgot, we're getting healthy, and bootiful! Best of luck everyone. I'll let you know what it was like when I wake up. Blessings all.:smile:

I too have had thoughts today of "Do I really want to do this", but I think it's because I have had so little to eat since Sunday (being on liquids only). Restaraunts, etc are really beckoning to me to eat. I passed by one of my favorite hot dog joints and had such a longing for a plain old hot dog.

I was not hungry until today and I know it's because I missed a Protein Shake between lunch and dinner and then didn't get home from work until close to 7pm. I will do fine though and I'm really looking forward to the new me as time goes by.
