    Any November 2009 Bandsters??

    I am being banded November 17th!!! I am SOOOOO excited! Today was my first day of liquids. Not too bad but I am sure I will get frustrated soon! lol. I am sooooo ready! I had my consult back in MARCH! :drool:
  4. I Wish you luck!!! I am sure you will do GREAT!!

  5. YAY JERRA!!!!!!! By the time you read this you will be banded!! WHOOOO HOOOO!! I am sure that you hurt right now but it will be worth it!

  6. Wow! You look great! When were you banded?

  7. Why is it so long until your fill???? That seems like an eternity! I hope it gets better.... How are things otherwise? How much have you lost so far?

  8. lol.... No date yet, I just finished getting all the testing done. I have myCardiac clearance on Friday and then it goes to the Doc to sign off. They said that should take a week or so.

    How are things going?

  9. Hey there, just checkin in on ya! How are your incisions! How are you doing on the weight loss front? I hope things are going well !

  10. You are kidding! I think I would be very angry! My insurance asks for 30 days to approve it too! OMG... I dont want to wait that long... I hoep they get it figured out... I was told it might be a few weeks. I can't beleive it took them 2 Mo!

     

    I am glad that your class went well! Are you going to go to the picnic this weekend? I though about it but I havent met anyone yet.... I think it would be weird. I am going to go to a Saturday Support Group next month hopefully.

  11. I like your MSI quote!

  12. That is super Exciting! I am so happy for you.... How was the Pre-op class?? I hope not too bad. How long was it between you finishing and them sending it off to insurance?

  13. Things are going well! I just finished up all of my testing and made my last payment today.... They said that it should go off to insurance in about a week or so. How are things with you?

  14. Whoooo RAY! I finished today! My last payment will be next Wednesday! Then off to insurance.... I got cleared by both the nutritionist and the exercise specialist today. They both said I was doing really well. I am having Dr.Voellinger write me out for two weeks after surgery. I am a big baby when it comes to pain and I dont heal very well either. I am so happy for you for the progress!! How bad is the diet afterwards and before???

  15. WHOOO HOOO!!! That is super exciting!! Is that total or just since surgery??? I just had my sleep study last night... I am really sleepy... I didnt hardly sleep at all.... How are the incisions? Are you up and moving again?

  16. Thanks for responding! I think everyone there was super nice so far. I REALLY want to get this started already. I hope that it does not take too long.... I finish up my testing on 06/04 and then the next week I should finish paying for it so that it can get sent to insurance....

  17. How was your appt? I hope it went great! You were right.... The Barium was not that bad this time. I did like watching the x-ray machine though! That was kind of cool.... How bad was the liquid diet?

  18. Thanks so much for responding! I am going tomorrow for my Barium swallow.... YUCK! I really would rather skip this part!

    How are things going for you?

    Hello from N. Carolina!

    I am willing to get together with anyone who has time! I think that this is going to be a tough journey and it is important to know people that are going through the same things! (I work until 10pm Mon - Fri)

    Hello from N. Carolina!

    That sounds GREAT Racegirl. I hope it doesn't take too long. I am REALLY anxious to get this done and started already! I would love to try to plan a meet-up with people on here. It would be especially nice to meet people that are seeing Dr.V! We can talk about how strange the shows on his tv in the waiting area are.... lol
  21. Haha! I KNOW!!!! I have ahd to do a full follow thru with barium.... 2 bottles... It took me 2 HOURS to drink it all... Every time I tried to drink it I would gag.... She kept telling me, " If you get sick...You have to start over!" *cringe*

  22. I am working with Dr.V in charlotte also! I wanted to stop by and say Hello! How was the process? I am still in the middle of all my testing!

    Hello from N. Carolina!

    Hey Everyone! I am planning on getting banded with Dr.V soon and I am in the middle of all of the crazy testing he requires! It is so nice to see people in the area and around my age that are working with the same doctor!
  24. Hi! My Dr. Is Dr.V in Charlotte too! You had surgery on my Birthday! I hope that everything went well and that you are feeling better!

  25. I am currently in the process of testing with Dr.V! How hard was the process, if you dont mind me asking?
