Thank you Maggie, I still can't believe it is really happening and in just a month's time...WOW.... I am going to have to stock up on what I will have to drink and eat for at least the first month after my surgery I am going to have to find out again what I can have like for the first 2 weeks and week 3 and 4 after the banding. I will keep every posted on how things are going....
Wow Whitney I am so glad for you!! I see your face every time I log onto this website because it was your post that sent me to the New Brunswick forum. You have waited but have done better than most with your weightloss so far. We are all excited for you and await our phone calls as well. That is just a blink, the wait is finally over. Stay strong and we await your experiences. love Trish
Thank you Trish, yes that is right when you saw my post that is what brought you to here....it has been hard to loose what weight I have and to maintain it but right now I am kind of at a standstill but haven't gained which is all that matters at this time....my nerves are jittery right now just thinking about how soon it will be over and the new journey will be beginning for me...hard to believe. I will certianly keep everyone posted in reagrds to surgery day and how things went. Someone will post for me...

Yahoo, this is great news. I am happy for you. I can remember in december how I felt when I got my call, I know how exciting and how scary it is too. It is normal the closer you get to your surgery date to start second quessing yourself. I and most of us did. But let me tell you I have no regrets, I am so thankful I had this surgery. Good luck on your journey , and remember this forum is here for you.
