Any SoCal Banders?

[MissyJake 0]

Found out today my surgery is March 9th.

Anyone else in SoCal to be banded around this time? I could sure use a Band Buddy.

I will be starting my Pre Op diet tomorrow. I have my Pre Op appointment too.

I feel Iike I will be starting my new life tomorrow and I can't wait!

I just finished my pre-op UGI and ultrasound at Cedars today! I have my surgical consult next week, and I've already been approved by the nutritionist and psyche. I'll probably be about 1-2 weeks behind you!

Hi guys, I'm in Hollywood.

I haven't done a support group.. i guess this place is my support group of sorts

@ChrissyM Well, for me it's good so far, you just have to be committed to it. You still have to watch what you eat and exercise.. don't be under the impression it'll do it for you. It makes things a little easier since you don't have a lot of hunger.
