I am planning on going on the 18th...I will be having a fill that week, and hopefully I will feel some restriction!

Hey Paige... it was so nice to meet you in person! I am so glad I went to the meeting last night!! It's so good to have a group of people who share a similar experience... those skinny people just don't understand!! It was great meeting everyone else who went to the meeting! Hope you can all make it next month! Mel- can you give me the name of the GYN you were talking about last night?? Katie

I'm going to go too....

Me too!!! I don't even feel like I have the band! I had lost 25 pounds, but have gained back 3... I know I am eating too much and can't wait for 1st fill Oct 21st!

:thumbup:Brigham and Womens... Dr. Robinson... Wednesday is the day!!

Mitch..where are you and hubby having surgery?

Hi all! I am going in on the 17th. I am on day 6 of the liquid diet and am finding that I am not hungry! Mind over matter I guess. I am excited for next week...it is coming quickly!!

Hi there..I am mom to two beautiful girls..aged 1 and 4. I am having my surgery on the 17th and am excited...going to the hospital tomorrow to see surgeon, anesthesiologist and nutritionist. Should be interesting!!

Hi Heidi... I'll be there the 25th for my psych appt:) My surgery is scheduled for Sept 17th:)

Great question.... I am being banded Aug 17th and I, too, have an 11 month old.. I am going to be relying on family to help, but am worried about my almost toddler!!

Hi...I am having surgery on Sept 17th with Dr. Robinson. I had gone to a seminar which he led and I really liked his no-nonsense approach!

I think this is hilarious! Thanks for giving me a good laugh!!!!!

September 17th for me!

Hi all..I am in the process of getting banded at BWH. I had my initial visit this week and am waiting to schedule my appts next week. I will be using Dr. Robinson.

Where are you having your surgery?

Hi everyone. I am Katie and am in the process of getting banded at BWH in Boston. I am really excited about the prospects. It's my first post, but have been reading a lot of the entries for the past week. I love all the support!:thumbup:
