Hey Cheryl just a week away now WOO HOO you must be so excited now. Do you still have to do the bowel prep with the band?? Just curious. Sooo close now YAY!!

Hello Kathy, yes, just a week, and I'm running through my little lists now,  Just organizing transportation and paperwork for my little man is enought work for one whole day.  and I just sent him away last week for when we went away, so I've spent the day doing all that plus groceries, for just liquids and soft foods.  I really don't know much about what is going to happen with the BAnd.  I would presume yes, the bowel prep... I just don't know too much about recovery diet.  I"m sorry I havn't been on much, My brain sometimes worries me???  I have to wonder sometimes if I don't need some anxiety or depression meds.  I let the smallest of things bother me.  Surgery dont' bother me at all tho.  I'm excited about that, I more worried about ME not doing this correctly and being a failure.  I know what I have to do, I just dont' have faith in myself.  but, other then that...life goes on, don't it?  Thank you for asking, you are great....and I can see the lawn wooo hooo!!!   Cheryl

Oh my gosh do you think any of us go into this wondering if we will fail. That is why I am so overwhelmed at the loss I have had so far cause I really don't have that kind of confidence in myself. But one day at a time and one step at a time. With all this wonderful support how could anyone not succeed. You can do it I have confidence in you. It is that fear of failure that keeps us on the right track I believe.  I will be praying that your anxiety is eased a little though. :-) Honks

Thank you Kathy, maybe that is what I need to to have faith like so many of you girls here.  I guess I"ve gone way too many years without it.  Another thing I have no clue how to get?? I can't believe so many of you here have such strong religious beliefs.  Good for you all  I grew up with very strict religious family, and it scared me away.  well, off to get me a yummy jello!!!
