Any September 2010 bandsters to be out there?

[pooky032281 8]

I just got home from my surgeon's office, and my surgery will be Sept. 2nd, 2010. I thought maybe we could all get together and try to support eachother through the dreaded pre-op diet and all the pre-op nervousness that goes along with being banded. Hope to hear from you soon!

Sept 22nd here! I have an appt with my surgeon on Sept 2 for pre-op testing. Then, I have a nutrition seminar on Sept 14. I certainly won't be as long as it has been! I can't wait!

pooky032281 congrats on your surgery date!!!! so exciting! did they put you on a liver shrinking diet? if so how is that going? and what did they tell you that you could eat?

[pooky032281 8]

I start my diet on Monday...we can "eat" any cream Soups, cottage cheese, Jello, popsicles...and of course Protein supplements. It's all liquid which doesn't make me too happy, but anything to get this thing done. I am so ready!

Hey blondeej! I also live in Funkytown (Fort Worth)!

I just finished all of my appointments and paperwork on Thursday so I hope to hear something soon. I'm praying to have my surgery in September.

I guess I kind of messed up the late 20's group thing since I'm 35. :frown:
