My LapBand surgery is scheduled for 21 August 2009 in New Zealand. I'm currently on the Pre-Op diet until then and need to drop around 3kgs a week. Yikes!

Hi, Tony50, I am from Manteca, CA. Good to know there is someone so close going through a simular situation. I am pretty chicken right now too, but I know this will be great in the long run! Who is doing your surgery? I am going to Mexico for surgery on August 18th because my insurance doesn't cover WLS.

Good luck to you!!!

I am looking at mid month , if all goes well :-) Lets keep each other up to date!

Waynes6,

My surgery date is 8/31/09. I have tried to start an Aug "thread", if that's what it's called. I like to have an Aug group, with a cute name like I've seen on sooo many of the entries I've read. That way we can like a "home" group-a group going through the same things around the same time. I live in Louisville, KY--not too far from you. Let me know what yall think out there.

August 18th here. I'm being fitted with the realize band by Dr. Schumacher at Kettering Medical Center-Sycamore in Miamisburg, Ohio. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it!! :frown:

My date will be finalized next week. I'm pretty sure it will be in August. I'm hoping for early August...mid-August at the latest. I'm a teacher and school starts during the last week of August. I want to make sure I have enough recovery time before going back to work. I definitely can't take any time off of work in September. This is why I'm so desperate to get an early surgery date. Good luck all!!!

Jendela, I'm also a teacher and have an Aug. 5th surgery date and worried about starting back to school with all the energy I need for it. We have in-service starting the 17th and the kids come back the 24th....eeekkk!!! That's only 12 days to figure out my new stomach and feel good! I'm pretty worried about it! Hope you get your date soon!
