stateofzen: That sounds like a good ideal.

Cathy, I have to keep that in mind.

Bandongal, I hope you have a fast recovery. Keep us post it

Wishing you both a fast recovery, Keep us post on your progress

QUESTION- Do you really see yourself as fat as you are? I was thinking about it today and well, the truth is, mentally I don't see myself as fat until I look in the mirror or pictures. Its really odd. Can't wait for my body to fit my mental image. Danide When I look in a Mirror, I don't look like my mind tells me. My mine says girl you got it going on, My mind is not telling the truth. I just look OK. But BOOOOy when I look at a picture of my self. Oh that can't be. It is something how the mind sees what it want to see. Oh Cicigril, You are right you can do it. And we are here as your support. Just a little longer and you will be banded. LisaA: I'm all for the exchange. If we are able to have one it can be helpful to everyone. At one of my Support Group meeting, a couple of people was saying that they drop weight so fast that by the next 4 or 5 weeks there in another size or two or three. david314, Congratulations on your approval.

Kerimhann, It's good to hear from you and to hear you're OK

Playermimi: You're right the pass may have been lonely. But now you have each and everyone one of us here, at" Looking for September 2010 Bandsters, as support". Like you said this journey is not a diet, we will be living a new way of life when it comes to food. Girl go on and do your thing we all are here for each other. BandedNellie: DH ask me to exercise with him after he gtes home from today, My reply was "we will see", after reading how you enjoyed exercising will you family, I think maybe that's the pick me up that I need.

LosinginSt.Lou, I hope you have a fast recovery. Keep us posted.

Our little family here at, Looking for September 2010 Bandsters is growing, it helps to see so many that have the same goal, to have a healthier live. Congratulations to all the new ones, and welcome aboard. Calacake, Spitfireloe, Aliciaj, Playermimi. Congratulations to all that's starting there per-op-dieting, I'm so happy and excited for you. Next thing, we will be reading from you guys is, Today Is The Day, I'm On My Way. Cathy: I have a number of things that I can exchange also. Things that I have only worn, two or three times at the most. You and I about are the same size, looks like we will not be able to exchange with each other.

Earlier I for got to say Congratulations and welcome to LadyT39, cece1967, cicigirl, Angel82 & ebeeze824 Angel82 Also check this Clothing exchange, I show this on another post CLOTHING EXCHANGE as we lose weight! - Band2gether.net Lap Band Support Forums

Hi Cathy: I think it will be around September 9. I was told they do not submit paper work more then 30 days before surgery. Like my son say "Now check this out" LOL September 9, 11:a.m. I go fore my per-op-testing, 1:15 I have my last visit with the nutritionist before surgery. On 14th. Of September my last visit with surgeon. All of this and my paper work has not been submitted. Cathy you are right that was a Heart Attack moment! Lillyegg: I pray that things work out. That's a bummer. Let me tell you about the deal I got last night. I said that I was not going to buy anything until I get my approval, I could not pass this up. I find the book Before and After Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery, For the Grand Total Of $3.49, that's with S/H and taxes.

I think that's a good ideal also.

Bandednellie, You go girl hang in there, when it's my time I hope to do just as good. 7lbs. that's good Leeblewb, A clothing exchange does sounds good to me also. CiCigirl; The hospital were I'll be having my surgery has a support group, I missed the meeting this pass Saturday, the one that I did attend I learn so much, they can be very helpful and encouraging along with the LAP-BAND®®®®®®® SURGERY site. If you are able to start a group it would be wonderful. LisaA, Allll! don't worry your husband have you covered. The kids will be OK. Just think of the reasons why it would be good to have the surgery.

eadreel, Congratulations

Glad to see things went well

cece1967, Congratulation on your Surgery date. and welcome to looking for September 2010 Bandsters. Cathy, We see you have a full schedule this week. Just a few more days and you will be posting I just got Banded, " That's like music to the ears". When I have my surgery I will have to stay over night. I don't know if it's the Dr choice or the in insurance. I had to talk to the insurance to make sure my Dr was on there plant, and she explain that I will be staying over night. Gracerev: I'm in your boat, I do the same thing, if I don't put things off then I will find something to do, the time goes faster and my mind is kept busy oh also I won't be on DH back.

Loyalfriend: Congratulations, on your Surgery and welcome to LOOKING FOR September 2010 Bandsters
