Getting Banded In A Few Hours!

Whoa! I can't believe it's almost here, literally! Well I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous, but it's not too bad. I have to report to the hospital (Fountain Valley Regional) in about 5 1/2 hours, I'm being banded by Dr.Kelly Francis.

I've been hugging my boys all evening, I just hope it goes well. I've been keeping busy this past week by prepping the house, cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning and organizing. Just want to make things easier for the first week or two.

Well I better get back to the laundry, just wanted to let you guys know that I'm almost there. Wish me luck!

Only 4 Days Left

Hi All,
I've decided to start a blog about my WLS to document and share my weight loss challenges, and triumphs with the world. I am being banded on July 20, 2010. I am on the last 4 days of the liquid diet and I'll tell you...at times it's just so hard not to eat food. I have to find ways to distract myself otherwise I may slip up.

I'm super excited to begin my banded journey and can't wait for the end results, hopefully a much healthier me for my kids and husband, and family.

I'm happy to share experiences with all of you wonderful people out there.

-Monica
