I Too had the same situation in April of 2007 and I have given it my all. I get up (still) at 5 am before my 6 kids and go to the gym. Tried changing my eating habits and that worked for about 3 months but continued to work out. My husband was most worried about how we were paying for the surgery. He has watched me work very hard for almost a year and a half. He is now very supportive and finding the OCC saved us half which also made him feel a little better. Just keep your head up and do your best. Keep saving and pour out your heart to him. PS I did lose 6 Lbs and am much firmer so thats good news.

Thank you all! I am feeling better about the pain. My Only problem still is my time off but just started a new job but luckly it is an office job. I will try to take off Monday too. Thanks!!!

Thank you, that is some great advice. Just getting used to fewer calories

I am new to this forum and have learned so much from all of you. Thanks you. I am scheduled for band on sept 12 and will be back at work on Monday the 15th? Was this possible for any of you? How bad was the pain on scale of 1 to 10? I had a gallbladder surgery that kept me down two weeks but all my friends were like its nothing??? So I want a realistic view of what this could be?
