Hi guys, I have a few hours until I am banded. I think I am a little bit scared. Please keep me and the other 8/7/06 bandsters in your prayers. I should try to sleep now. I must get up at 4:00 AM!:notagree I will post as soon as I feel up to it.

I am a Sagittarius.

I will be banded on Aug. 8 as well. We should be buddies. At first, I was a bit scared. Now, it seems unreal. Good luck! :confused:

I had my stress test today and had the final meeting with my Dr. before surgery. Everything was A OK. So, it is really going to happened.:clap2: Right now, for me the scariest thing will happen on Friday. It is the day I pay for the surgery. (self-pay):phanvan But, if one is going to be in debt, trying to improve your health is a very good reason.

I am glad you asked this question. I have been wondering what to buy. I am thinking about a hand blender. The Braun Multiquick Hand Blender from Wal -Mart.

MoOrLess --- They are making a movie out of The Time Traveler's Wife. I can not imagine how they will do the book justice. But, I will go and see it.

I am re-reading the series. I can not get enough. I am excited and sad about book 7. I just finished reading an excellent book. The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. I highly recommend it.

I too have been eating and eating. I have to stop.:help: I don't want to weight more when I go see the doctor again in two weeks. I have my stress test then.

I am 31, single, no kids. Some days I want kids and some days I don't. Who knows how I will feel when I reach my weight loss goal. :confused:

That is AWESOME! I am so happy for you.

Sounds like fun. Count me in!

Hi, I will be banded August 8th! I am excited and scared. Jgandg--- Thanks for starting this thread. Clarityseeker --- Have a great time on the cruise. I am so jealous

Thanks for the ideas. I think it would be great to share recipes. I need all the help i can get.

That is FANTASTIC!!! Congratulation. I hope I have the same success.

I am going to be banded August 8.:clap2: I just don’t know what I will be able to eat when I am allowed solids again. I am a big pasta eater. Can some one give me some ideas? Thanks

It was great to read all of your replies! I will be banded 8/8/06 and have been questioning if this is the right thing to do. But, I know I can not loss the weight on my own.

I love the house! I am so happy for you.

At Last by Etta James. It is a slow song, but I love it.

Hi, I am 31 years old and single. I will be banded on 8/8/06. It is just time I take control of my life. After trying every thing I could think of, surgery is my last option.

I am 5'3 and would like to get down to 130.

For me it was looking at my vacation pictures. I know it sounds crazy, but I never felt fat before that. This is despite the fact I have been over 200 lbs for six years. All I could think was, "who is this huge women?" I knew I need to lose weight. I tried all the fad diets. Everyone knows how they work out. So, here I am.
