Hi! Well got "the band" on the 16th as planned. A few pretty rough days, but now coming around again and feeling much more myself. Had some pretty painful days to my surprise. Feel darn good today...dont quite know what to eat, but will figure it out. Not to mention...dont feel like eating, of course.
How are you????

Hi! Yes, I am getting "the band" Dec 16th too!!!!!! Barely 2 weeks...wow, time is just flying by. I was reading your profile and see that you are a photographer, so am I ! What type of photography do you enjoy?
This lapband talk has been quite informative, everyone seems so helpful and open. Where are you having your surgery? Mine is in Colorado where I live. Let's keep in touch! Kim

December 2008 Bandsters Names (Final)
2big4mypants replied to Florida Pete's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hi! Which city are you having your surgery? I live just outside Denver and haven't heard of Dr Brown. Of course that means NOTHING, I only found Kirshenbaum thru a friend and went straight to him. I see you are from Kansas. Do you get to go home the same day or are you spending the night in the hospital? I get banded on Dec 16th!! Yahoo!!!! Luckily I live only about an hour from my Dr. I feel so fortunate. Kind of a weird feeling, these mixed emotions you have before an elective surgery, but as I have said before....it sure beats being overweight for the rest of my life!! Kim in Colorado -
Wow! Your profile is wild!!! Where do you get all this fancy color and how the hell do you post a profile picture. I could only get a photo album to post?? Would be nice to see your pretty face on your photo rather than some woman in the distance holding a hairy thing??? I am so glad to have met you. You are such an inspiration to me!! If we dont talk before TGiving...you have a wonderful nibbling day girlfriend!! Gobble Gobble! Kim

Hi! My surgery date is Dec 16th...Unfortunately Colorado is not running any specials for just chubby chicks. I also have a bmi of 34. But I have high cholestoral, so I qualified sqeaking by and waving $100 bills in front of the nose of my dr (ha ha!). Anyway, wow...you only have a few days how are you feeling? I definitely have some mixed emotions, mainly regarding the recovery afterwards. I have read so many wonderfully easy recoveries and a few not so wonderful. But I guess anything is better than being too big for my pants for one more year!!!! Good luck to you, Kim in Colorado -

Great idea to have Christmas a little early!! I am going to be banded Dec 16th. Looking forward to it!! Christmas is certainly my fav. holiday of all time, but being thin is a much bigger priority, so my family is okay with me laying back in a recliner if need be. Hey, you never know...my husband may even cook?! Kim in Colorado Kim in Colorado -
Looks like you are probably home and recovering by now, Hope it all went well and looking forward to watching your progress. You go girl!! I will be banded Dec 16th....cant wait. Kim in Colorado

Thank you for your wonderful insight and honesty. What an inspirational story. I will be banded Dec 16th and feel blessed I ran across your story, made me feel so much more at ease. Way to go!! Thank you, Kim in Colorado

Hi! I am going to be "banded" on Dec 16th by Dr Kirshenbaum in the Denver area. Can hardly wait!!!! I really do feel like I am sitting on the outside looking in... it will be so exciting to finally have my own ticker also. Kim in Colorado -

Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Anyone having surgery on the 9/24 with Kirshenbaum?
2big4mypants replied to Cassy's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Hi! I am scheduled to have surgery with Dr Kirshenbaum on Dec 16th!! I am so so excited and would love to hear about your experience so far. Do you mind telling me about it? Thanks, Kim in Ft Collins -
Hi, I am scheduled to have lap band surgery Dec. 16th. So a little over a month from now. Dr Kirshenbaum is doing the surgery, does anyone have any experience with him? What was your experience like? I would appreciate anything you would like to share to help me feel a bit more at ease with this decision. I am really excited, but nervous also.
Thanks, Kim
