I am getting banded in September! I can't wait I just want to meet people local and have a support system in place! I haven't told many people I know about the surgery as I don't want their negative opinions. I am going through True Results in Scottsdale for the surgery.

Pre! I get banded 8/27. Start my preop diet saturday.

That's right! Lol I'm a month behind you! Some reason I can't look at people profiles using my not so smart phone

Nice! We're banding neighbors!

I am In Arizona and go to true Results in Scottsdale as well I am 5 days post op

Yay! Congrats! How are you feeling? Who was the surgeon?

I am going to True Results in Scottsdale also. My Surgeon will be Dr Nirmul. I just got scheduled yesterday for 9/16 although I my be able to move it up some. I live in the Prescott area - is there anyone out there from here? Would love to start a support group up here as I can't get to the one's down there

Let me know if you move your date up! I want your current surgery date! Hehe mine is penciled in for the 27th as long as the INS approves me in time BUT I want to get it done and over with ASAP! I think I might have the same Dr... Wait just thinking about it I was told surgery is only on Thursdays and Fridays? Maybe it's just the surgeon that was assigned to me? Hmmmm
