Sure did! Banded 12/30/08 @ 1:30pm. Woot! I'm still a little achey, but havent had to take my pain meds just yet today. I haven't been eating much at all, which completely caught me off guard. Even when my sister was eating one of my fav foods, I think of how it could cause my band to slip. No way would I want to go through this surgical pain again!!!

Congrats, chica! You look HOT in that OR gown!!! Haha! ;3 Anyway- Im heading in now! I went @ 7:30 and they said I was mistaken- I'm getting it done @ 1:30. Ugh- all day without food or water!!!

I wish the recovery were going well! Unfortunately, I have yet to be banded!!! Apparently I had MRSA December 15th, so they rescheduled me for December 30th!!! I've been on a liquid diet since December 2nd!!! I'm going CRAZY! But I've gone from 306 to 287.7, and that was when I weighed three days ago.

Thank you!!! :3 +add friend

I'm getting banded tomorrow morning @ 7:30am. I'm SO excited, it's ridiculous! Especially after seeing Katiebug's before/after photos! She's totally inspired me!!!

I've lost 15 lbs on my pre-op diet, though. I was lame and, after receiving the "not recommended" foods list for post-op, which included many of my favourites, I went CRAZY binging on junk left and right. Skyrocketed from 272.8 at my first appointment to 306 at my last meet with the surgeon! WHAT?! LOL! I fail at life sometimes, when it comes to food!

I saw you comment on Katiebug's profile, so I had to click your cute face, lol! You look adorable now! I cannot wait to see the results of getting banded. I'm heading in for mine Monday morning and am more excited than nervous, but still.

The description on your album is HILARIOUS! I keep hoping I'm a cutie when I'm thin, but definitely not expecting Penelope Cruz to unravel. I'll aim me for Lauren Ambrose a la Six Feet Under. :3 Or Thora Birch, possibly.

Psh- and whatever, you're gorgeous! With a killer sense of humour! And you claim to have brains? What more could anyone want?! If I liked women and you liked women, I'd "tap that!" LOL!

I saw where you posted about the salad and egg "cheat". On my pre-op diet, I'm allowed salad and steamed veggies. I can also have a 3-4oz piece of lean meat once a week. So I'm thinking the egg wont harm a fly! You should be good to go! :3

I saw how you didn't get the band at first due to a fatty liver. Just had to writr and let you know that you aren't the only one! My mother was scheduled in February and, after getting all set up and trying to move the liver aside, the doctor quit because she had a fatty liver. She'd known about it before, as it is caused by her Lupus, but didn't realize it could be problematic. Luckily, they banded her March 11th and she's lost over 80 lbs thus far! My own inspiration!!!
