Sara, you will be great! So glad you are getting so close to your date. I am as well! My mental journey with this started back last August when I starting thinking this was a possibility for. But the physical journey started on 12/17/12 when I went to my surgeon's Lap Band Seminar. I am so thrilled to be on this path. Good luck to you!

Im hoping for early March! I'll keep everyone posted! So excited/nervous! Glad to see someone started a "March group" though!

I just had my initial consultation today. If insurance falls through and I'm a self pay, I'm shooting for a surgery date of March 18. If insurance is going to pay, I will have more hoops to jump through, so it will be around 6 months.

I have an upper GI March 4th and then I am hoping that after that I can schedule late March for the surgery. If things work out, I am super nervous though.

March 16th here! I'm so flippin excited!

March 15th!!! 38 days and counting!

Today i had to start my liquid diet, i have to do liquid all day with one meal and then starting the 18th i go liquid all day till surgery! Today was..interesting! I was really excited last night to get started, the protein drinks arent to bad (better get used to them i guess!) My surgeon is having me do the month long liquid because of my starting size. I will be around on here as often as possible! Here to listen and help as i can! Hoping the month of February flies by, im so excited to start slimming down and feeling good!

:D Good luck to u too Shanna! Thank you!

I set my date today March 28, kinda really freaked out a lot!

I haven't gotten my date yet but I have a feeling I will be a March bandster too! I will let you know :)

The 2 week pre surgery diet is going to be a nightmare for me!!!!! I truly hope it's the hardest part of the journey like people say! I have a 3 hour class on Tuesday to get all the details on everything, really nervous!

Getting banded 3/12/13.
