Anyone getting banded in Nov?

[Irishflower79 183]

Called today and got my surgery moved up a week to Nov. 7th!! I wanted it earlier because of Thanksgiving. Not that I plan to indulge' date=' I just didn't wanted more time to adjust to my band before being around family and a huge food spread. I am not planning on telling anyone about the surgery except my husband, who already knows. I go for pulmonary testing this week, and if no issues from that I am good to go! [/quote']

I wish I could get my surgery(nov14) moved up also! The person that submits and schedules is out until Wednesday. I am going to try and get mine moved up also!

Same here only a select few know about the surgery everyone else will be under the impression I'm having a hernia repair

I hope you can! If I tell my mom any kind of surgery, she will freak and want to be with me. LOL Keeping it on the down-low and when pressed about what I eat, I will say I am watching what I eat (no lie there!) Good luck to you!

I am only taking off work 2 days, and then will have a weekend...so total of 4 days. I do have the option of working from home if I need to, once I got back. I don't like having it so close to the holidays either but at least we know we will not overdo it this year!

I am looking for a November 'banding buddy' or buddies. My surgery is Nov.22. I would of liked to do it sooner (dont we all) but my surgon is on vacation. I am not nervious about the surgery. I am scared of losing my best friend-food. I have already come up with a plan for Thanksgiving, and how I am going to avoid going to my family's house. Besides ,my husband, everyone thinks I am having heital hernia surgery. I feel really guilty not telling them what I am doing, but I learned my lesson at the beginning of my journey, when I mentioned I was looking into weigh loss surgery. That is why I am coming here. I do need support. I am noticing that I am doubting my decission. Does anyone feel or have felt this way?

Only a few people know about my surgery the others will think I'm having a hernia repaired but I'm not even saying that until I have my date set in stone! My kids know and my aunt and the doctors and a few friends.

For those of you that have started liquids... What are you doing? I tried it yesterday and drank a ton of Water and 2 Protein Shakes through out the day. The Protein shakes were a little rough. Looking for other reccomendations and what protein shakes have some of you gone with? I bought Body Fortress off Amazon. It has decent reviews and the price was right. Per 'scoop' is 30 grams of protein? Stupid question: can you have too much protein? I don't want it to make me gain weight.
