It won't be long now!
Surgery tomorrow at noon, I've been on liquids for 4 days and mostly clear liquids today. I'm hungry as hell and I wasn't nervous until my little sister called and kinda walked me through the whole pre-op procedures... she's an RN in the OR at Childrens Hospital.
So other than that I'm ready to get it on.
Part of me is wishing I had the will to make the same commitment I will have to make after this procedure,,, without actually having to have the surgery. If the insurance wasn't paying for it there is no way I would go through with the Lap-Band before I tried going to a hypnotist and have them put one in my head.
Anyway, I'll keep ya'll posted with my progress.

So did she promise you "all the ice cream you can eat" after the surgery?
(actually, that sounds like
.. you'll see what I mean your first day out!)
Best of luck and keep us posted, Mooseman ..

Everything went smooth. I lost 12lbs since my visit 9-5 and didn't go on liquids until 9-12. I'm hoping to be close to 300 by the time I go back to La. for Christmas. Unless something goes wrong 60lbs in 90 days is definitely obtainable if do the right thing.
Other than spending 30 minutes on the toilet trying to get that first stream of pee flowing last night, scared to death that the catheder broke off or something... the pain and sore ness seem reasonable.
