Alexandra 55 Posted August 12, 2007 The last few weeks I've been completely preoccupied with a work issue, but suddenly TOMORROW is my rebanding! I'm sooooooo ready to get cinched again, sooooo ready to stop closing in on an upward spiral. Holy hell, if this episode has proven anything to me it's the I NEED A BAND. So this is it. See y'all on the flip side!! :whoo::whoo::whoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

areellady 1 Posted August 13, 2007 I am happy that you are getting a new band. What a wonderful thing!!!! You are on your way back to bandland!!! Rest and let us know how it all went!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexandra 55 Posted August 14, 2007 I'm back and BANDED!! Yaaahooooo!! The surgery went well and I'm "resting comfortably" as they say. I'm soooooo glad to be on this side of the banded divide once again. Thanks so much everyone for your concern and well-wishes! Tonight I'm feeling lousy, of course, but if history is any guide I'll be feeling just fine by the end of the week. Looking forward to two days of vegging out!!

Alexandra 55 Posted August 14, 2007 Hi Rain! I had Dr. Abkin again, though I know Dr. Bertha was there and they were both operating today. I hardly remember seeing the doctor, though; i'd already been given the first drug of the anaesthesia cocktail and was feeling a little loopy. And though I know I saw him afterwards, I don't remember that *at all.* Thanks so much for checking in, and I really hope to meet you someday. Say hi to Pat for me!

WASaBubbleButt 41 Posted August 15, 2007 YEA!!!!! You are no longer our "honorary banded person" of the forum! You are back to being ... One Of Us. (Insert theme song to Twilight Zone...) Good to see you are doing well. Anything gained during the infamous unbanding can quickly be lost. You'll do GREAT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
