Hi- My surgery is September 8th. I am very excited but nervous too, thinking about all that "what ifs". It been a long process and I so ready for this.

Congrats! I'm scheduled for Sept. 8. I also can't wait to get this over with, counting down the days. I'm sure as I get closer I will start to get nervous.

Hello, I just received my insurance approval, after over a year of fighting! Surgery September 9 in ABQ NM. I'm also very excited, this has been a long time coming.

Hi!! I've been penciled in for Sept 28th. Everything looks to be in order and it will go off to the insurance company for approval after my third dietian appointment in a couple weeks!! Can't wait.

I will banded September 6th,2011. I am so excited. I can't wait.

I am going to be banned on September 13th!! (in NY) im so excited but i am also nervous. I am only 18 years old and keep thinking of small "what ifs" too. I am mainly concerned about excess skin.. Is anyone else worried about that? I am also concerned on the fills. I have read that some people are not successful after their first fill.. and some people arent successful until their first fill. I dont know, maybe thats just some people. I start my liquid diet on August 30th, i am kind of nervous for that too.

I am scheduled for September 13th, My pre-op diet starts Septmeber 3rd. I am excited and anxious too.

I'm worried about excess skin too. I'm hoping that I can tighten most of it up with exercise. Both of my sisters have successfully lost weight with lapband, so I don't worry about not losing.

hello i finally got a date aug 29 i know what u mean

I just got my insurance approval and band date of 9/15!! I'm in the Chicago area, and I'm so excited that I can't sit still. It seems like such a long process, and I'm so relieved to finally get started with this!! It sounds crazy - but I can't wait!

I just found out today that I was approved (didn't even know they were turning it in yet)! I will be banded on Sept 7. Start my liquid pre-op diet August 24. I'm so excited!!
