Wow! What a list. Thanks for doing that. Actually, I was May 1st bright and early, but what's a day? I'm just glad it's DONE! You'll be up before you know it!

I am in the Hampton Inn in Monterrey, MX as I type this - I am being banded tomorrow! I had my pre-op testing done this morning and did some sightseeing this afternoon, I´ll meet with Dr Rumbault this evening.

Very impressive testing today - I had an EKG, had my blood drawn, had a sonogram, a chest x-ray and a physical all in one office, in about 45 minutes, max. At home in Virginia that would have been weeks of different appointments in different places... pretty sweet.

I´ll be going to the hospital tomorrow for surgery and will be back here in the hotel on Wednesday. I´ll be sure to post when I can! Wish me luck!

:welcomeB: to justduckie & TIDGE!! Glad to hear your already banded and joined us to compare notes. I pray you will continue with a speedy recovery!!

dawner119 ~ Will be praying for you also. I bet it so pretty in MX. Give us an update when you can.

missyfan ~ Sorry we missed your date, but we will lift you in prayer for your surgery this Fri.

Hey Myra ~ Your list is SUPER....THANKS!!! I made some adjustments on my list and I have a couple to add to yours: May 15....RmichaelsAZ and May 17....msj0028.

Please let us know if we're missing anyone. We want to stick together and hold each other up for prayer and support!!

:clap2:

:wow2: we have 47 people getting the band so far for May. I bet there's more that haven't signed up for the May Band Crew. This is amazing!!

[Mvpo8961 1]

Hey 3loves has anybody heard from RmichaelsAZ. I saw a post on 5/1 saying they were hoping financing would go through so they could be banded on the 15th. But I didn't see anything after that. I was wondering what happened.

I sure missed msj0028. I also saw somebody on another post a moment ago that I need to add also.

Started my preop diet today. Southbeach Phase I is what my surgeon uses. So I am sitting here eating a small pork chop and salad. Woot!!

Hmmm....wonder what is going on with RmichaelsAZ? Hey Robin, are you out there? Let us know b/c we would like to keep up with you.

So, Myra, did you say you were fixing up pork chops tonight? :hungry: Sounds yummy......just need to know dinner time.

[Trip2bme 0]

Add me to the 4th of May list.

So far, so good...I guess! Dealing with a pinched nerve, but better for it by all means.

Good luck to everyone else jumping on this roller coaster!

Hi all---I have been on the outside lurking for the past few weeks waiting to jump in..Well, now is the time..I am scheduled for May 18 with Dr. Huacuz..I will keep all of you posted..

[txpeach 0]

Mvpo,

Enjoy that pork chop and salad! If you feel deprived, just think of those of us who have been on liquids for 3 or 4 weeks. We'd WRESTLE you for that piece of meat if we could get it past our band w/out excrutiating pain. lol. Enjoy while you can, and it will help ease you into your new lifestyle. I will assure you that once the band is in place that it is easier to resist. My little helper - "Buddy Band". lol.

[CLOE 0]

Please, Please, Please enjoy that porkchop! I'm shaking just typing it..lol. My dr. has prescribed 3 weeks just liquid opti-fast. I'm on day 4 of 21. I would cut off my limbs for your pork chop!!!!

Anyway, Yeah what a May Crew!! Good Luck to all getting banded shortly, we'll be thinking of you all. I can hardly wait 17 more days for me and one step closer to a PORK CHOP mmmmmmmmmmmmm:hungry: sometime in July I figure.

Oops I forgot, thank you for putting me on your list. I feel like I really belong:)
