Thanks bunches Cheryl!

.....I'm about to GET control and I just can't hide it!! Now now my dear cg, your importance can't be expressed by mere words.you are the sunshine on a cloudy day, you are the wind beneath my wings, You are my shining star, etc etc etc ( phew, that was quick thinking)

Chez and Mads, you guys are just what the doctor ordered. Thank you for all the positive vibes to date, and I know you'll help me. Can't say that to many people in my real world.

Thank you very much Floridays!

Getting banded December 17th. 9 days before my 49th birthday. For years and years all I ever wanted for Christmas or my birthday was to be smaller. I was given a healthy body that I have slowly and steadily ruined with food. I have been blessed with a second chance to undo the damage. Please wish me luck.

Chez, The messenger always gets shot. But it was a good message regardless. xoxo

Learning from those that have been there, is the BEST thing about this forum. Welcome and Happy Thanksgiving!

Gobble gobble. I wanted to be banded by Halloween. Wasn't. I wanted to be banded by Thanksgiving. Wasn't. But in suppoort of my pals and for practice I will eat,and chew, and wait as if I was banded! Practice makes perfect.

Sounds southern to me!! Do you guys put gravy on your okra???!!!!

Whether you are pre or post banded, Thanksgiving will be here Thursday. So what is your favorite dish on the table? mine, Mom's cranberry relish Yours????

I feel your pain. I'm waiting also for bcbs.

Hi icestorm, Noticed you have the same doc as someone I met today from MA. Hello from another New Englander

Come on in. Sit down. Hope you brought a smartphone or tablet because the magazines are old. And it is getting real old waiting for approval and surgery date. So if you want to chat to pass the time, let's!!!!

Hi I am waiting also. Stinks, doesn't it?! Most of the people I talk to haven't been banded all that long yet they know so much and are very helpful. And then the ones that have been banded for quite awhile don't mind the naive questions I ask. Feel free to chat anytime and we can be in the insurance wsitjng room together. Hmmm, that sounds like a good name for a thread! : )

Oh geez, you are from NY. Are you a yankees fan? I'm from Boston! Can this friendship ever have a future?????!!!!!! : )
