    Looking for September 2010 Bandsters

    Hopefully my banding will be done by 9-30, dr has promised that it will be done then or no later than the 1st October. But I would love to keep in touch with everyone. There is so much I still don't know about how I am going to react to this after surgery, learning lots from all you folks who do have bands
  2. I go tomorrow(Thursday) for the endoscopy, and dr says hopefully surgery by the 1st of October.

    Lord, help me!

    I won't have my surgery for a few weeks yet. I am thinking that what you are pretty normal, because I have the same thoughts, and while excitement is certainly there, there is also doubt. I guess I have a pesaimistic(how do you spell that word?) streak. It will be good to hear from you in a week or so to see how things are going. Please keep us informed.

    200 LBS to Lose

    Lashonda, I am pretty new to this sight. I am having the routine endoscopy that my dr. does before he will do a lap band surgery. My papers have been sent to my insurance co. for final approval. I am planning to have my surgery by the end of September. So excited. I was so impressed with my doctor. He is a Christian. And so am I. This is so improtant to me. Have you had your surgery yet?

    Closet Shopping

    You remind me so much of myself, everything I have tried before to lose weight failed. I will have my band by the first of October, wish it was tomorrow. I will be having my endoscopy on Thursday, and if that comes out ok, I'll have my surgery by the first. So excited, love hearing from these posts, its certainly encouraging

    copa, next step

    Well, I saw my doctor yesterday, I will have a endoscopy on 9-9, and as soon as my insurance is approved, my surgery should be around the last of September. I am really getting excited. My doctor was so nice, he is a Christian, which is very important to me. He answered all my questions. Love this site. it makes me feel like I have a lot of friends that I can share a common interest with. :confused:

    copa, Dr Day

    Well, today is 9-1-10, I have been thru my physcological evaluation, and today I see the doctor, not sure what's next. I was told by his assistant that I should be able to have my surgery 2-3 weeks after seeing him. So excited, and I just wish the "friends" that can be so critical and try to always discourage instead of encourage would just hush. I will let you know what my next move will be after I see my doctor.:tt2:
  13. Thanks, I am sure you will be hearing from me.

    It feels like Christmas

    I feel the same way. I want to put all my crazy mess ups behind me, and this time, really let God lead me thru the rest of my life. It will be great to keep up with your progress. Its so nice to be chatting with a fellow Christian
