Surgery scheduled

I will be banded on Wednesday, October 29.  Please keep me in your prayers.  I really don't feel scared, just a little nervous.  I am excited, been waiting for this a long time.

GAPEACHES

Peaches,

I am getting "Realized" tomorrow morning .  I will be thinking about you on Weds.  If I am up to it, I will try to post an update on Tuesday with my experiences.

GOOD LUCK!!

Mendee,

Good luck!!!  I will say a prayer for you, please do the same.  I will keep the board posted. 

Peaches & Mendee,

May you both have a speedy recovery!

I was banded on Sept. 29th so I know how you are both feeling today.  Hope you procedures go very well.

Blessings,

Jeane

Jeane,

How are things going for you?  Anything, I just be aware of beforehand?  How is the fasting (liquid diet)?  Are you still on it?

Just curious to know about your experience.

Peaches

Hi, Peaches.

I as feeling great!  Just be sure not to "gorge" before the surgery (too many "last meals") as my surgeon said it could enlarge your liver and they might have to do regular surgery rather than lap band. 

I am on solid food as of yesterday, and have had NO problems.  Did liquid and pureed.

I am down 19 1/2 pounds and am completely off my diabetes medicine.  

I feel very blessed!

Carol and Jeanne,

Thanks for the support.  It means a lot.

Peaches

You are certainly welcome!

I am scheduled for Oct. 29 also.  Good Luck and I will be thinking about you.
