Anyone Getting Banded In July?

My tentative surgery date is July 23rd because of my work schedule. It may change by a week but it looks like I'm gonna be a July baby. Anyone else out there that will be banded in July?

Mine is Tuesday the 3rd, less than 48 hours!!! I'm scared but excited as well, more afraid of the pain after then the actual procedure itself. But some folks say its not to bad.

I am so lucky, my friends had a pool party for me yesterday, even though I could not enjoy cocktails with them and stuff from the grill. The overwhemling support they showed me brought tears to my eyes. I am a lucky guy. :P

Today is your Bday, I hope everything went well for you. When you get a chance please give us an update.

I'm scheduled for July 16th. I really nervous about the insurance approval. I am praying it gets approved and I don't have any delays!

So found out today my date is July 23. Very excited, except now I have to do the pre-op diet....3-4 shakes and a salad plus 2 apples a day for snack. Here's to all the new July babies!!!

I'm getting my band on the 12th. I'm excited and scared.

I'm getting banded on the 12 th also. :) Are you as excited as I am?

I started my liver reduction diet today. Protein shakes aren't too bad and my doc allows me to have 4 - 1oz of protein in addition. I got some string cheese to munch on.

I am going through caffeine withdrawl and have a massive headache. Can't wait till that ends. It's amazing how caffeine can effect you.

My surgery date is July 12' date=' so I'm looking for a band-buddy! Anybody having surgery July 12th?[/quote']

My surgery is Thursday July 5th. Starting to feel a bit anxious. went to Walmart today to buy my post op liquids, broth, jello, etc. I think I am ready!

Any one getting psychotic on this pre op diet? I am constantly feeling like I am having a panic attack! Cant get interested in anything. Trouble concentrating. I am ready to take the gas pipe.

I am with Kathie. I feel the same way. It is affecting my mood. Really moody and anxious.
