Ok, I am so excited about my surgery on thursday, I think I have developed some form of ADD.. I can not concentrate on anything. I start to pick something up at work, and then my mind whips back to thinking about the band.

It's crazy.. Has anyone else become this overly excited, perhaps obsessed about thinking of the procedure before the date.

I have read books cover to cover, packed my bag.

I feel like a child waiting for christmas morning.

I'm 52 for god's sake. Some times I find my self just gigeling.

I can feel my adrenaline running...

Such a good feeling, but I better get some focus..

Be well.

I understand what you are feeling. I get banded Nov. 10th. I haven't been able to get anything done at work. I start to daydream about shopping in "regular" stores. And "jogging" with friends.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
