HEY KNOCKOUTS!

How's everybody doing?

I'm anxiously waiting for Wednesday.... hard to believe in less than 48 hours this will all be a reality...

How are our post ops doing? Pre ops? Anything new and exciting (or old and boring!) to share?

Hey coconutlatte I am being banded by Dr Snyder this Friday so sorry I can't help you out with the hunger thing but have you been drinking your Protein Shakes? ? I have heard that those can take the edge off. Were you happy with Dr. Snyder it seems so long that I have seen him for my first consult I won't even remember what he looks like lol Where are you in Denver?? Do you know of any support groups in the Denver/Aurora area?? I hope things get better for you and let me know how your first fill goes!!

Good luck to you!! Are you going to be overnight, or same day?

I'm going to be overnight when I have my surgery, but from what I am told the rooms that I will be in are like hotel suites. Private rooms, pullout bed sofa for a guest, flat screen televisions, private bath, wireless internet...BUT I hear the food service sucks!:tt2:

Be sure to let us know how it all went!:biggrin:

Thanks for your well wishes. I am everything went fine. I was banded at 8;30 and by 6:00 pm was getting ready to leave when I suddenly weak and some nausea so I decided to stay overnight. My room was not like that but the the hospital was pretty nice and the service was excellent. I have not needed to use pain medicine I am just uncomfortable with gas. I am actually at back at work and the hardest part is controlling your desire to eat when everything you can not have smells so good.
