Okay, Many of you are getting banded or hoping to get banded in January. Here are the ones that have an actual surgery date - Lets keep it updated as you guys get your surgery dates so we can add everyone to the list:

Angy12314 - 1/03/07

Sunshine2 - 1/18/07

Jun0610 - 1/22/07

rsbell - 1/22/07 (twin surgery dates - cool)

shues138 - 1/26/07

Everyone else, as soon as you get a surgery date, let us know, and we can keep the list updated. Maybe we can track our progress all together and how much total weight the January Band Crew has lost!

My name is Edie and my surgey is scheduled for January 25th. I'm nervous and excited. Please add me to your January group.

Thank you.

Can previous January bandsters join in here? :) I was banded 1/19/06, and I can still so vividly remember this time last year while waiting for January to roll around. We were looking at last year's video of Christmas and oh, my gosh, it was HARD to watch that person. I've lost almost 80 lbs, dropped from a 24/26 pants to a 12/14, and have about 25 lbs to my goal...only 7 lbs to the goal I set myself when I was first banded. I'm in the best shape of my life right now and I'm THRILLED that I got the band. :D

This time NEXT year, so many of you will be able to say the same thing. :D I'm not an exceptional bandster...I still snack sometimes, eat the wrong things, etc., so if I can do this, I honestly believe that anyone can. You're definitely starting your New Year off right!!

This sucks!!!!!!!!!! I don't think I can drink another Protein shake! just want some solid reg food!! I'm going to have a hard boiled egg this morning. It is suppose to be ok (no carbs, high protein) will try a shake later today! Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated!:girl_hug: :confused: Kellie

I don't think I can drink another Protein shake!

YES YOU CAN! Think Positive - your date will be here before you know it!

Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated!

Like I said, you can do this. You've come this far so just a little bit further to go and you will be there. Just try and not to let yourself get hungry, drink some broth, it seems to fill me up. Make sure you drink your Protein shakes BEFORE you get hungry, that always seemed to work for me (I was on a liquid diet for 6 months previously - nothing but Protein shakes). I know its hard, but you can do this, and you will do this! hugs, hang in there.

My name is Edie and my surgey is scheduled for January 25th. I'm nervous and excited. Please add me to your January group.

Thank you.

Hi Edie, welcome. I know your nervous, I feel the exact same way, and I'm sure most of us here do. Its a natural feeling during this time. I know previous bandsters have told me the same thing. I think everyone goes thru this feeling of "OMG, what am I doing" lol. But it will pass before you know it, January 25th will be here soon. Just a little over a month away, so hang in there and try and visualize how much better you are going to look & feel!

Our list of January Bandsters is growing to be quite large now. We almost have one for each week day, but not quite yet. But at the rate we are going, we probably will.

Hi, I'm being banded on January 2 at Northwestern Memorial hospital in Chicago, IL. I start my pre-op diet on December 23, but I think it will be fine. Let's all keep in touch!

Wow! There are so many January Bandsters. Imagine, if none of us had found this website we'd all feel so alone. I'm really glad that there's such a large group, it's an awesome that we can all support each other.

I'm starting to feel really eager and anxious, like i just want to get it over with and begin the weight loss already. I've still got so much to go. Anyways, i was just wondering if anybody else is feeling that way.

Yes yes yes!!!!! I can hardly keep myself off this site, I'm at work too, and needless to say, I have gotten no work done lately because I am obsessed with Lapband talk! Its all I can think about is my surgery. Today marks 30 days to go, I'm counting down!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
