Congratulatons Cathychatts! I'll be right there with you in 17 more days. I can't wait. Keep us posted on your recovery and new life's journey. :incazzato:

I am new and from VA as well. I live in Yorktown and I'm havng surgery June 25th at Sentara Careplex in Hampton. I would love to have others to offer and receive support. I have about 115 lbs to lost. I start my pre op diet on the 11th. Good luck everyone. I look forward to blogging with you.:incazzato:

HarleyNana, have you been satisfied with your results? How long did you have to wait before your first fill?

HarleyNana, I'm so anxious about getting banded. I start the pre op diet this Wednesday. Also, I see you live in Yorktown. So do I! In fact I went to the beach music concert on the river last night. I live in Foxwood. We're also close in age. (I'm 54)

Who is your doctor? I have Dr. Clark and will be banded on the 25th at Sentara in Hampton. Do you go to the WLSC of Hampton Roads?

No, but I'm not that far. I am having surgery in newport news on the 25th of this month.

Hi Jennifer, I'm also a teacher and getting banded on June 25th in Newport News, VA. My nutrition class and pre op are both scheduled for the 17th. Our last day of school is the 13th, which is why I had to wait. I can't take time during sol's for the preop stuff. I don't have any advice, but I'm feeling nervous and excited like you are. I just wanted to let you know someone else is in the same boat. :leaving: Good luck I just made a ticker but can't figure out how to post it! LOL:biggrin:

:thumbdown: I'm impressed that you wear pantyhose! I'm so exhausted after the fight to get them on that I need a nap! The thought of having to use the bathroom after going through all that is even more daunting! LOL:scared2:

I had to take a 180 question computer test before meeting with the counselor. I haven't heard it mentioned. It came out that I was fine but ask too many questions! LOL

I love how you call yourself fluffy. My grandmother was heavyset, and when I was little she told me she was going on a diet. I started to cry and told her not to because I liked her fluffy! :thumbdown:

The good thing is that he called you a lady. :thumbdown:

Hey Kerry, I am so excited for you. I am getting banded on June 25th. We are the same age and about the same maturity level! LOL I wish you the best. Go for it!

congratulations, Snuffy, I'm the day after you. :cursing:

I am June 25th and very psyched. :cursing:

Yes, I just found out this afternoon that I will be banded on June 25th. I could have done it a bit earlier, but I'm a school teacher and wanted to be out on break. I am so excited! Good luck with your pre-op. My pre-op visit is a week and a half after yours. :cursing:

I'm going through the process at the same place. I have an appt this Thursday with Dr. Clark. I'm hoping to get my date then. :blushing:
