Who is having surgery this week (May 3-7)

I can't believe that "surgery week" is finally here! I am scheduled for 8:30 on Thursday, May 6th at Lovelace Westside Hospital in Albuquerque, NM.

Who else out there is getting banded this week? How exciting...we are almost there!

Just have to share this...with just two days to go until surgery I have seen the scale register a number under 300 pounds!!! I have set many goals for myself along this journey, and being under 300 pounds was the first one. I still have a long way to go, but it is great to get this first victory under my belt even before surgery :thumbup:

I know!!! I am so excited and nervous all at the same time!! I wish you all the best and a safe surgery:smile:. I haven't weighed myself so I am not sure how much weight I have lost, but my close are fitting very loosely. I've had some struggles as far as cheating a little, but for the most part, I have stayed on course. Did you do well with your pre-op?

I can finally officially post on here!!! I will be banded tomorrow morning at 10:30am. I waited to post because I didn't get my approval until 11:30am TODAY.... 24hr before I was having the surgery:rolleyes:.

Oh well! At least I got it.

Good luck everyone!
