babedoe4 5 Posted February 3, 2008 I'm going to be on the loser's bench too. If they send you home same day but your insurance allows the second day stay, would anyone out there recommend staying? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

minock 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Count me in! I'm scheduled for the 25th. I start the pre-op diet on Monday. Two long weeks of Opti-Fast. That should be challenging. My surgeon also wants me to do 2 more weeks of opti-fast after the surgery. I'm not necessarily nervous about the surgery itself; just hoping this works for me. I plan on being very patient since I understand that it takes a little while for you to actually start losing. I'm anxious to hear how the weigh loss goes for you guys that are ahead of me. Good luck for everyone with upcoming surgeries! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

angie61 6 Posted June 23, 2008 Hi I'm Angie (angie61). I'm having my surgery on July 30!!!! Very excited, but it seems a long way off. What are double V's? and how can I post a new thread? I'm really trying hard to figure out this site. I don't have much time this morning and I'm puzzled as to how to get to everything a little faster than I AM doing... I posted a new message a few min. ago and I have no idea if it went "through" or not and/orhow to read the reply(s) if any. Thanks in advance!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ezma 2 Posted June 23, 2008 Hi Angie. First off, congrats on your surgery date and best of luck with the surgery and new life. Probably the best place for you to post is going to be this section - July 2008 Bandsters - Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum. It's the section for people who are going to have their surgery in July of 2008. VVs or Double Vs or Victorious Valentines are the names the people who had their surgery in February 2008 use. That happens to be the section you posted in. No biggie cause we're all really in the same Lap Band boat. :grouphug: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
