I went for my pre-op appt. and there is so much to do the day before surgery.  I never realized I would need to do all the things the doctor has told me.  I have like five different prescriptions that I need to get filled.  Its a little overwhelming for me right now.
I also went for my pre surgery consult with the hospital as well.  That went pretty well and it didnt take me nearly as long as the first appointment did.  I had to test out this little breathing thing.  I cant remember what its called but she said I would have to breath in and out of it a few times every hour after surgery for a while.
This is another step complete and next thing you know I will be in surgery and ready to start my new life.

Deep breath!  How exciting to be this close to the first day of the rest of your life!  :)

Unfortunately, I had to delete this post due to privacy concerns.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!
