Hey all - I actually got my surgery date today and it is 11/11 - so I am super excited and scared! Anyone who wants to be support buddies - message me or let me know. I know I am going to need some mental support lol and would be willing to help with some support/advice/tips as well.

I just started a group for November 2013 Bandsters and invited all of you to join. I have been on Lap Band Talk for quite a while and never wrote a thing but today I want to get the ball rolling because I am going to turn to this forum for support - I have been watching from the sidelines on this site for a while but I am going into the game!

If people can fill out their profiles a bit that would be a good way to get to know each other a little better. Mine is quite vague and no real picture, but the stats are all there: I'm 52, live in the US, New Hampshire, 5' 6" 246.1 pounds today, goal 150, surgery date November 11th......WE ARE GOING TO ROCK THIS!

I have the invite but have not replied because I am waiting to see if my INS will deny me again or not! Last weigh in is this coming Monday October 21st. Surgery should be November 14.

Hi, I have surgery scheduled for 11/14. This Monday 10/21 I am scheduled for my Bariatric University class at my Doctor's office. I don't know what to expect at this class but realize anything I learn will be appreciated. I start my liquid diet on 11/7 which I understand consists of 800 calories per day.

Anyone that wants to compare notes let me know, I'm game! Best Wishes to all!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
