How 'bout a new topic for January Bandsters. New Years-New You!

I'm being banded Jan 12th at UCI in Orange, California. How about you?

Congrats! How are you doing so far?

I'm doing okay, still recovering, thanks for asking. Took the bandages off to reveal the staples today (yuck) and trying to take it slow with the liquids but learning that what seems like a little bit is still too much. Looking forward to being a few more days down the road to hopefully be pain free! And looking forward to having a few more January buddies

I'm having my band on January 27 in Tampa, FL.!

Going to be banded on Jan 20th.....3rd day of preop and have already lost 5lbs.

I'm getting banded on the 12th as well in Minnesota. I'm so excited and this is going to be a great year!

Being banded Jan 11th at St Pat's hospital in Missoula Montana. Yikes, it's almost here!

Banded Jan 7th!!!! YEA!!!!! BUT OMG, my shoulder pain is about to kill me!

Good Luck to all. I was banded on Jan 3rd in Richmond, Va!!! 2011 is going to Rock!!!

Had my band put in Monday and feel really good. Minimal pain, mostly from burping.

Went to work a couple hours today and feel very good. I guess I was blessed with out some of the complaints others had.
