Anyone getting banded in Nov?

[Bandista 7,466]

Hi there, congratulations! 15 days out and those early few days of pain then discomfort are a distant memory -- just kept getting myself up and walking and my body got all these new messages. The healing but also the new attitude of being a walker and a loser of weight. I don't think my body quite understood that before but it's getting it now! So happy, too. Just happier all-around. Out of food jail happy.

LadyJ and Icy One, I'm right there with you--was hoping to be a Nov. bandster but my Drs office screwed up the paperwork. They are doing a peer to peer review with the insurance company today at 4:30 (if they don't screw that up too!) so I'm hoping to know something by the end of the day. If I get approved, I'll be a Dec. bandster. You're not alone, we can start a new group for us Dec. bandsters.

Hey, we're not letting you go that easily! Just think, a year from now we'll all be 2013 bandsters talking about how quickly a whole year passed. Wishing you the best for this afternoon's peer review. Hope you get the news soon and that's it's just what you want to hear!

Nope. Checked in at 5:45 left at nine. Headed home, as I type this. I have a cushy recliner with my name on it waiting for me.

I'm glad you're doing good. Get some rest then start walking around the house!

I am, thanks. I am home, chillin like a villain in my recliner, sipping warm tea and watching Top Chef. I have been trucking around the place, walking, too. Feeling pretty good. Tired but okay. Portie is a little ouchie but as long as I remember and watch how I move, not too bad. I'll live.

Thanks. I m convinced that a positive attitude is important. And I tend to be a bit irreverent about more minor medical stuff. A sense of humor makes it a little more fun.

Well everyone, i had my surgery this morning. Went pretty well. Doc even commented about how well i did on my diet because it was really easy for him. Home and resting for a while now. A little sore and the gas pain comes and goes but nothing that can't be handled.

Wishing everyone else well in the next couple of days. Lets do this.
