Ok, I finally got my surgery date... two weeks from today and I have all these emotions going through my head, one of which is a strange almost mourning feeling. Has any one else felt the same?
I am very excited to do this and to no longer be trapped by my body, but the only me I've known for almost my whole life will be leaving. I guess I need to focus on the new me who's coming right? Change is good and change is scary too!
I am scheduled for my surgery on December 14, 2010. I am very much like you. I have mixed feelings. My first hurdle is approaching quickly as I have to go onto a liquid diet for two weeks. Then next I am concerned with the amount of pain I will have after surgery. So if you have already had your surgery please tell me about your experiences. I have also had horror dreams and pleasure dreams about lapband.

I know what you mean about feeling a mourning feeling. When I realized I would be able to eat all the food I love I had a little break down. Today is day 6 for me and every day it gets better. I promise. Stay strong and Love the process
GOOD LUCK Kim by: Tom
Good luck with your surgery.
The band can change your life... treat it as a tool... work with it... take it day by day.
