getting ready for my surgery in 2 weeks
Hello Deborah,
I had all of those emotions to. I had my surgery on July 20,2010 in Lubbock, Texas by Drl Syn. You have all kinds of feeling going through. I wieghted 300 pounds and now I am at 210 and still lossing, my goal is 175.
When my day of my surgery was on me I had alot of feelings, but I went into the surgery scared and excited. I can not even remember the surgery was in the operating room then presto out of surgery. My stomach was sore and I had to walk after surgery because they want you to walk. I found sleeping upright in a lazy boy recliner was good for me. I had a stomach band that I wore for about 3 weeks and this really help alot. I used my recliner as for me the bed was not very comfortable. You will find that it is best not to laugh if you can help it, just do ho ho ho. You will start your new life and things will be easier for you walking, bending, more energy and smaller clothes sizes.
So do not worry to much but know it is the best thing you can do for yourself. I wish I would have done it years ago, but I would still do it again. I will lift you up in prayer and all will go great for you. If you have any questions to ask please feel free to ask me. Take care and be happy. Ray

Hi Deborah,
I'm having surgery in July and I'm having the same feelings. My biggest fear is that I'm going to fail, but I'm trying to stay positive. When I initially decided to have the lapband I only told a couple of my friends just in case I fail at weight loss again, but now just about everyone knows. I just don't want to disappoint them or myself. Let's keep in touch!
