    December Surgery Dates

    I think about 6weeks post op before you can really begin working out.... I need to just start moving first before even going to the next level of working out...
  3. Now to answer your question...Well my date is 12/3 and I'm scared that I won't change my ways and give this the commitment it needs.Then on the other hand I keep thinking of how much weight I'm going to lose...I will make this work and make it a life long change....

    Merry Christmas!

    Sghatl - we're leaving on 1/19 from SanJuan on Royal Caribbean for 7 nights in the southern Caribbean.. I told my hubby he's going to save a ton on money on me not drinking alchohol...I love and enjoy cocktails and wine, but I'm thinking that 6 weeks post op - that could be a little dangerous/bad for me...I think he's bummed that I won't be gorging on all the food and that he's wasting money on the cruise...prety nuts!

    Merry Christmas!

    sghatl - WOW you are really a planner...Christmas???? I haven't even given it a thought....but I suppose I better...I don't usually put the tree up until around the 12th or so. My surgery is the 3rd. I hope I'm feeling up to decorating, otherwise, it's going to look like a Charlie Brown tree. My husband surprised me with a cruise for 6weeks after post op. Am I crazy doing this? I really think he thought I would move the surgery until after the cruise, but I refuse...It's now or never....what do you guys think? Also, I'm in desperate need to start an exercise support group for our month...I need all the push out the door to walk that I can get.

    Bodybugg users report here!

    You can definitely get the body bugg for $299 right now if you use the code blc24. It just took $50 off the order even though it said the promo code expired. I'm hoping it gets back down to $196.... :whoo:

    Bodybugg users report here!

    Strangest thing just happened I went to 24hourfitness.com and put the bodybugg in my cart and when I tried to checkout it gave me a $20 off promo. So, I took it one step further populated the coupon promo code and I got $50 off. The site said the promo expired, but yet it still gave me the discount. Final price of Bodybugg = $299 - Also, the watch has a $30 discount on it right now. Totalling $69.95 for the watch

    Merry Christmas!

    brez - I would love to start an exercise thing before being banded...I keep telling msyelf you better start changing your ways now or else after banding it's not going to be any easier...I need constant pushing and then once I get into it I will be so motivated...It's always the first steps. Also - everyone has been talking about getting ready and preparing for the band. What does that involve? I haven't done a thing or bought anything. Do I need to get moving here???? I'm such the procrastinator!!!! :faint:

    Merry Christmas!

    Girly - I have to do a one week diet - so I am looking at Thanksgiving as my last supper as well....I'm not scared or excited, I haven't given this the attention it really needs. I've been working and so busy that I think I better slow down and get mentally prepared. I typically just start doing stuff and think about it later. I don't think I can do that in this case. Although that's how I handled all the pre-op testing. Just went with the flow. I'm concerned if I think too much about it I may get scared and not go forward and I just cannot do that...I'm looking at this as my last solid attempt that I need to make at changing my lifestyle and eating/exercising habits and keeping the weight off. Oh boy! this is a lot to think about..I better get a glass of wine and start getting ready for my big change.....

    Merry Christmas!

    TX and Girly - did you both get your dates yet????
  22. Carolk1

    Any Long Islanders?

    Only4Me - I got the call 2 days ago and I am scheduled for 12/3. I'm thrilled with the date because it is far enough after Thanksgiving so I don't have to explain to anyone why I'm not eating solid food and it's 6 weeks before a cruise my husbad surprised me with. Coincidentally, when I told him the date he asked if I shouldn't wait until after the cruise before doing this. It's funny, because first he wanted me to wait until after the holidays and now wait until after the vaction he surprised me with for January 19th. Makes me wonder what else he would want me to wait for before having the surgery. Anyway, I'm doing it on the 3rd of December and that's it!!! Candle - I must admit I have been stalking you, (in the nicest way possible). I started reading the boards since August and following your progress. You have done an amazing job and are a real inspiration for me. I am getting banded by your doc as well. Thanks, for continuing to post and share your comments and suggestions...You must be proud of yourself and feel fabulous!

    Merry Christmas!

    TXbandit - go to tickerfactory.com - they explain how to do it on the site. It's pretty easy, although it took me 3 times to get it almost right....Congrats on your date...I really hope we can all use each other as support as we go through this new life changing experience together. I am constantly reading other months and I think it's great how they all share what'ss happening to each of them. It's going to be a big adjustment and a great learning experience for us all...God knows I need as much support as I can get. I've only told hubby (who keeps questioning how will this impact him) and my mom who is 1500 miles away and doesn't necessarily get it. Although she claims she does. December Merry Banders unite!

    Merry Christmas!

    I would like to join the group....I got "The Call" yesterday...My band date is December 3rd. I'm psyched, nervous, anxious, scared and excited. I'm going on a cruise January 18th and am looking forward to a whole new way to live my life, including vacationing. I've been lurking around here since august like Girlyz Girl, and I can't wait to hear about everyone's experiences and gain/give support now and in the coming months. December 2007 banders need to band together because we are giving the BEST gifts to ourselves this year. Good luck to all of us...
