Hey Rosa! May Lapbands sounds good to me. Let's start the party!!! In regards to the smiley faces... when you post on the right hand side of your post should be a space that has "Toolbar:" written at the top. It has 2 blue bars with a "v" shaped notch in them. One says Title Images, the other says Message Emoticons. If you want a specific face in your title then click on the "v" and it will show you faces to click on. If you want them in you post message click on the "v" on Message emoticons. Then page down to the one you want and copy the symbol by the face or figure. The dancing figure is a colon ":" the word "dance" then another colon without any spaces. Just type that in your message and you should have a stick figure dancing like this Easy once you have the symbols and thier "type this" symbols beside them. Good luck with teh emoticons!! My surgery for lapband is 2 days before yours. I'll be thinking of you. Cindy

Cindy I too will be thinking of you on May 10th Read your profile you sound like a winner and your boys are so handsome..

So let's for sure keep in touch tx for teaching me the symbols geatly appreciated now I need to learn to make my site prettier and download my pic...;bow:hahahaha.. Warmly Rosa

Hi Everyone, This is my first time out on this board. I'm sceduled for May 8th lap RNY. I'm scared and excited and nervous. I think I'll feel better about it after April 10th when I have my final pre-op appt w/my doctor. I started the process last July so it's like it's almost here. I didn't tell many people about it and of those that I've told there are a few that I wish I would not have. I tell you! Anyway, one thing that I did do. I was reading somewhere that we need a reminder of the journey that we went thru and how our lives will be completely changed. I bought myself a diamond braclet as a reminder of the journey and the new things to come. Since I will always have it on, it will be a reminder of how hard I've work to get to this point and when I'm tempted to eat something that I shouldn't I'll see that bracelet as the reminder. Also, it gave me another reason to buy another piece of jewelry. Hats off to my fellow May friends! Let's begin our jouney!!!! Mary Jo
