May banding 2007



Recommended Posts

I don't see a thread for May 2007 yet. Or I am just blind. But yesterday I received my final approval from the insurance company. I scheduled for May 21st, because my is converting over to a new software in the first week in April and I have to be here for the full month. Little by little I am getting excited. I knew that I would be approved I just didn't know how long it was going to take. And that was the longest 2 weeks ever.

I don't remember seeing one---looks like you might get to start it!! I know April is filling up, they have quite a list of them going to be banded in April. I am an April 06 bander, so we have been in touch with the April 07-ers!

I bet you will be shocked how they start popping up with May dates---you won't be alone for long!

Congrats on getting your date! And welcome to LBT!!! This will be one of the best things you have ever done for yourself!!!

I hope April and May go by fast. I turn 40 on the 11th of April, so this is a pretty good birthday present. I told my husband tonight "just think you are going to married to a new women" My whole family is very excited. I am just ready to feel better.

the Specialty Surgery Center of Fort Worth on Precinct Line in Hurst across from Wal Mart does fills with flouro. I am not sure if they have issues with patients banded in Mexico but give them a call. Or call AIGB in the same building and ask them.

Good luck!

      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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
