City: Between Johnstown and Somerset State: PA | I'll be thinking of you - saying a prayer for us both!
I'm leaving work at 1:30 today, gotta get my dogs to the groomer before I go get the unfill. I guess I'll be doing all my errands as well. I can't even think straight!
What time is your surgery? Mine is at 8am so I have to be at the hospital at 6:30.

| After reading your posts about the surgery getting moved up, I had a slight panic attack. As much as I want the surgery, and all the reading, preping and waiting, now that I am close to getting a date, I'm nervous.
Look forward to reading about your surgery and how well your doing.

State: CT | No need to panic Kim!! It was a piece of cake for me (no pun intended!!). Just stay calm and be as positive as you can.
I am banded for 3 days now and have had an unbelievably easy recovery. I am taking advil during the day for pain, but hardly have any pain!!
I'll be back to work tomorrow and will be ready!! I still need to remember to take it easy......
I can't wait to hear from stephc, although I am sure her recovery will be longer... | |

| I straddle 2 age groups
Hi everyone
I was 49 years and 364 days old when I had the surgery, so I figure I can honestly be in the 50's and 40's. I was banded in Feb and so far I am 'on track' with a 1-2 pound loss/week. Of course, I wish it were more (and there are many who do achieve that), but my body is holding on firm to it's blanket of fat!
I noticed a few comments about not sure how they felt about 40, etc...for my 40th I had the best party and loved the decade. 50s - so far their great - hey I'm going to be healthy and what better thing is there than that!
Anyways, I shall be checking in on this thread regularly - that is if you let someone of the next decade in! | |
