Hello everyone! I am brand new to this group and I am so excited to get more information. I can't wait to meet new people as I go through this transition. I just had my surgery on October 22 and I am healing and embracing what is to come.

Hello everyone my name is Valerie and I'm getting band on 11/2 I'm happy scared what should I expect on that day and after

Was watching my niece play field hockey today on the field I played on 30 years and 70 pounds ago. I am going to dribble a ball up and down that field again by next season! SCORE!! (just need a darn surgery date.)

It's nice you set a goal,lol. Get it a goal! I crack myself up sometimes.

I have no doubt that you will!

Hi Valerie! It's normal to be afraid of the unknown, but you really don't have anything to worry about. Day of surgery you arrive at hospital 2 hrs. before surgery. They get you all comfy and hook up an IV for fluids. Then I just watched tv. Then just before surgery they give you something for your nerves. Take you in Operating room, transfer you to table and again ppl hooking you up to monitors and before you know it, you're waking up in recovery all done and ready to start a healthy wonderful life.

If you follow ALL your Drs. orders you will do just fine! Just keep thinking about yourself more healthy & happy, great prize!

I wish you all the best!

I really look forward to reading your post escapades.

It's like Lucy and Ethel, Mary and Rhoda, Laverne and Shirley all got banded!!!

Dear Sweet Dee B , it was I that gave you your name and if left to Aj & PPPB no telling what you would have been called.

You ratted me out sista.....

Rethinking new name for DSD.....

Taking suggestions.

I think PPPB making video today. I hope she pictures us all in our birthday suits to help her nerves.

Why is AJ the only one that is never called by a B name?

Who hasn't received a Banded B name yet?

~giggles~...PBBBB will have that smirk on her face during the whole vidio

and you do have a point about AJ....get a memo out to PBB about that name up grade....

and I swear I didnt rat you out....I cant even find half the post your girls are on half the time...

I think im going to have to stop with home work and falow you all more...

But for now im off to see the kiddies Halloween parade in school and help out with a party....

This is a NSV today for me...I never wanted to be a room mother...but this year I offered !!!

Why is AJ the only one that is never called by a B name?
