emptyNest 4 Posted March 12, 2011 Welcome everyone!! I'm not sure if I want to name my band until I get to know her... I might need to change it based on how well we get along. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrissyM 0 Posted March 13, 2011 I just got my Ins approval!!! Yeah! I have to book my surgery Monday but we talked about April 18th. I'm just not looking forward to the 2 weeks liquid diet, but super excited! Good Luck to everyone! Chrissy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goosapotomus 0 Posted March 13, 2011 It feels so unreal to be able to say that I am getting banded. It has been a long process but totally worth it!!!! I am April 14th as well!!! I'm only anxious about anesthesia...I have never been in the hospital for more than just an ER visit, so the while the procedure doesn't scare me, the anesthesia does! I work in a hospital on a surgical floor and I see dozens of people every week that are perfectly fine post anesthesia so I know I'll be fine! Congrats to everyone who is getting banded this month...let's go ladies and gents!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

w1770w@gmail.com 2 Posted March 14, 2011 Hi my name is Willow--Mine is on the 18 of april at 10:45 am! Just got my date last week. I am so excited, I have a couple of weeks with not much to do except get used to the liquid diet--I started early in case I have trouble at first I want to be able to go into the "real" preop diet with sucess, what else can I do anyway but get ready for my new life habits, right. In just less than 2 wks I'm down 26 lbs. Then in the 1st week of april I have my preadmit, my cardiologist appt, my pulmonary appt, final visit with my primary care dr and then the big day!! I wish you and all of us, a journey filled with insights, hope, joy and a new appreciation for the people we are and hope to become. congratulations!!-- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
