gettting anxious

Hi, I had the Lapband done five years ago. I am scheduled for a RNY on 11/10. I am excited and praying I find success in my journey.

Good luck!

Thank you.  I didn't have much success with it.  I see you live in Indiana.  I am in Ohio.  

That is a great step, my surgeon does a lot of the lap bands to RNY.  (He says the lapband is only good for 5 years, but gives people a chance to see what WLS could do.)

Best wishes!!!

Here is a post I did a few days ago:

Everything moved fast for me too, so when I woke up post op, I checked in with myself to see if I "buyers remorse."  My brain was in a fog, so it took me awhile to sort out my thoughts.  Here's what I thought.  It was like going to someplace I wanted to go for a long time - like Paris.  You buy the tickets 6 months in advance, got on the flight, claimed your luggage at the airport, checked into the hotel, but it's not until you wake up the next morning, look out the window and see the Eiffel Tower that you really say, "Hurray, I'm really in Paris."  That is how I felt.  Even in Paris not everything is perfect and I've had my share of challenges.  But I am in Paris and enjoying it.

Also, when I felt the first relaxation response from the sedative, I looked at the clock and it was 7:42m.  I thought 742, my new lucky number!   (I haven't won anything, but I've lost 106 pounds!!)

Best of luck to you, after checking in to see how you feel, concentrate on following instructions so your future is as healthy as possible.

Thanks for that.  I know what you mean.  I keep telling myself to keep my eye on the price.
