Waiting for next week.

Hello all. I am new to LapBandTalk.com and am to be banded on July 8th. I am kinda bummed because I was supposed to be banded today but have had a fever over the weekend so my surgery was postponed. My doctor is Michael Sofronski and I live in Maryland. I will interested in talking to all who are at the same stage I am as well as you oldies who are experts at what is going to happen to my emotions and my body. Liquids are not so bad. It has been a pretty easy week for me. Hope all who are at the stage I am are also doing well with the pre-op liquid diet. Wish me luck.

Hey Ruby!! I'm so excited!! My doctor is Dr. Daniel McCollough, Dr. sofronskis partner! Nice to meet you. My surgery is scheduled for July 30th. So I have a couple of weeks before I have to start my liquid diet. I was relieved when they said we could have cream soups (strained) It sounds a little more doable that way. I live in Va. Maybe we'll meet. I am a nurse, what do you do? Angie

I work for a bank. I manage and open accounts. I wish you good luck. do you know many people personally who have had the procedure. I don't know anyone except the folks I have met at the support group.
