newbie

Thanks for all the input! I got banded two days ago. I felt pretty good yesterday so went mall shopping. Might have overdone it as I didn't sleep all that well and today feel so much worse! About to get on a 5 hour flight which I'm so not looking forward to. Feels as if someone has punched me right in the stomach! I also feel very weak and shaky (and I'm usually not a whiner but I feel like whining now) - any suggestions For what to drink to keep up strength this week? Can't wait to go to work tomorrow (note the sarcasm).

Could also have been me!!!! Amazing, people without weight issues all have the same response. I'm doing it anyway and have explained how tired I am. It got worse when I said I was going to Mexico......

Try Overeaters Anonymous - their website has links to meetings so you can find one near you. It can really work if you put the work into it and the support and comraderie is amazing.

Still looking for anyone getting banded Nov 27. If there is anyone else out there with the same date, please let me know. Also, any suggestions for things to take with you, things your dragged down there and didn't use or things you wish you had taken with you would be greatly appreciated. Nervous Newbie!!

Hello. I am scheduled for surgery on Nov 27. I am super excited and super scared! Anyone out there scheduled for the same day?
