Hi all,

I am new to here as of 1am this morning. I haven't yet posted my story but thought I would get going with my fellow November bansters. My date is November 8. I am not nervous about the surgery per se but am nervous about food etc. It will be nice to go thur the ups and downs with you. Any one in the bay area (sf to monterey) California? Mine is being done in Monterey, live in Santa Cruz area.

Getting excited now...the nurse from the bariatric program just called to go over and confirm my medical history, medications, my pre-op appt with the anesthesiologist, etc. And I'm in Day 2 of the two week pre-op diet- I started a couple of days early! (and yes, I'm so hungry, but this phone call helps with motivation!) November 9 is coming up soon!

Hi All.......I am not sure if I am technically a Nov or Oct bandster I am scheduled Oct 31st so I thought I would join in with you guys since I am going to be fresh out Nov 1st...so with that said I am probably going to be the first to get banded in this crew lol.....Anyone on the 1st or the 31st??? Really Halloween lol!!!!

I do! I'm reading your blog right now

New here and so excited just got my surgery date today~ Nov 8TH I am soooo thrilled! Cannot wait to start this journey! I too wish to join the face book group for november bandsters!

Welcome. Add me as your friend. Stacey Diederich Speager. Then send me a private Facebook message with your date and I will add you in the am. I am heading to bed now.

My surgery is set for Nov 22- waiting for insurance approval. In the nervous/scared/excited stage now. You can find me on face book- missraefla is my screen name!

I would love to get a group of people who start when I do so that we can have each other's encouragement. I work too many hours to attend very many in person support groups so I hope the online groups will help.

November 23rd I am super excited!!!!!

My surgery is Nov 3,2011.I'm so excited about it.

I will join the band wagon November 17! I start my pre-op diet next Thursday and I'm so friggin excited I can't stand it! So glad to have a group to talk to and I'm very ready to begin this journey!
