Hi, I'm Asha from Texas. Actually, my surgeon's insurance benefits coordinator referred me to this site. I am getting banded in just 4 days! I'm going through all of those things that so many of you already have...excitement...a little concern over that liquid stage:confused:

Of course, like many of you, I have been working towards this and jumping through all of the hoops as required. :grouphug:

Hey there Asha, I am also being banded in 4 days, MAy 31st. I am excited, but also there is a part of me that still doesn't believe it. I think it hasn't sunk in yet! I wish you all the luck. What part of Texas are you in?

Well, May 31st is our day!...I'm around Abilene, Texas. I too can't believe it's happening. I wish you luck too. :grouphug:

From one Texan to another, welcome to LBT and good luck with your surgery! Be sure to come back and let us know how everything went!

4 days after banding....so far so good....started whole liquid diet toaday....yum :girl_hug:

Hope things are going well for you. I just received my call to schedule yesterday! July 5th is my magic day...I'm so happy I found this site!

Ashagirl, great that everything is going well! Aren't liquids great???? NOT!! Congrats to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep coming around for support. We're here for ya!!
