Hi,

I have seen posts for August and September and even October, but no November yet... so why don't we start one now :clap2:

Mine is scheduled for NOvember 7 with Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey. MX.

When is yours?

Congratulations on your banding date, Angela. I'm sure there will be more November bansters showing up in the next few days. You could start the new November thread. Good luck with it all and keep us posted.

Hi Angela, I am already banded, but just wanted to welcome you to LBT. Keep an eye out for other November bandsters, I am sure they are out there.

We're getting this done a few days apart... wish we could give hugs for support! How are you doing? Positive thinking? Negative thinking? Where are you at?

Hey there,

I'll be banded on November 20, 2006 in Tijuana, Mexico with Dr. Huacuz.... Let me know how it goes since you're getting it done first.

I can't get much closer to November then 10/31/06... That's when I go in to be Banded.

Hi everyone go to the November board in the general board..... we have a big group...I started this one also but the other one has more people!

:kiss2: Hi, I'm Lois and scheduled to be banded Nov 6 by Dr. Deol in Sterling Heights, Mi. Scared and excited. I'm on the liquid diet now and not liking it much. Does anyone know if more people are fine afer surgery than are not? After surgery we are just supposed to sip water or juice and broth the first few days then move on to smoothies and such, but at what point do we start worrying about getting enough protein. I don't know how you can get protein the first few days. Thanks for any help anyone can give me. I've been looking and reading on this site for about a month now and find it very helpful. Eveyone seems to be so great.

Surgery date 10/31/06

Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit

Were not to far apart.The thinking is confuseing a lot of people say don't do it because you already lost weight.Well still have a long way to go.

I'm "Nervous", Anxious, and confused only about a few things. I'll get them straight tommarow. How much weight have you lost on your own?

Do they have you dieting to see if you have any control. Get babk Shirley.

I just got Banded on Halloween at Henry Ford Hospital. My name is Shirley.

Protien is the key healing factor for those tissues. This stuff is called

Muscle Milk. It promotes healing, gives you youre protien that you need, and it helps burn fat. "It really works!" You can go to G.N.C. and they are like $49.00 a jug. "it's expensive stuff, but it works" or go on ebay and

type in muscle milk and watch it come up. Now read all the adds, and you will come upon a guy that sells 4 jugs, any flavor that he has for about $59.00 plus shipping. His add will also read cheapest on ebay or internet.I'm in S.C.S. and trust me I am a returning customer.

You will need between 60-80 g of Protien a day. 80 if you are healing any new tissue. like I am.They told me clear fluids for 1 day, then soups, jello's,and Muscle Milk. Get Back Shirley.....
