February 2014 bandsters?

[SweetGeorgiaT 23]

Hello everyone! Just updating. I was suppose to have my last evaluation appointment Wednesday, BUT since the chaos with the snow (I live in Georgia), I had to reschedule my appointment twice! My wonderful sweet doctor, whom usually doesn't see patients on Friday, made a special exception and squeezed me in this morning. So this morning I submit my paperwork and keep my fingers, toes, & eyes crossed and hope for the best! So I'll be the late bloomer of the group :-)

Question... have any of you purchased a blender? I was looking into getting a ninja to help with the Protein Powder. I tried shaking some up in a bottle... needless to say the result was less than desirable. My mother insists I should get a Vitamix, but I just don't see myself dropping $600 on a blender. Any suggestions?

I have a ninja and I got the one that came with the big blender and 2 individual cups. When I make my shakes I use the cups. I love the ninja. What part of GA do you live at? I live outside of Columbus and Ft. Benning. My doctor is Albany, GA

That's what I was looking at. I think that's the one I'm going to get. It seems to have the versatility I need. My blender died from Bacardi overdose. Bless my lil Myrtle's soul. She went out like a trooper! Yes! I'm in Macon. My doctor has an office in Albany. Who do you go to if you don't mind me asking?

oh nice! Dr. Chris Smith is my doctor and I will have my surgery at Phoebe north. I have to drive 1 hr and 45 mins to get there. Oh and you can't go wrong with the ninja :-)

Hi Secret Bander! Please check in when you are done! I know we'll all be waiting to hear how you feel! Good luck! I am getting excited... But a little nervous too!

I am schedule for Feb. 14 to reposition my band that slipped. I got banded Dec. 2007 and have done very well! Good luck!

I'm scheduled for Feb 6. Can't wait! Start my 3 week liquid diet Friday.

[Lumpy 18]

Yes! Get you a good one. You don't need to spend $600 but it would be worth it! Spend at least $200. You'll use it a lot for a long time.

Let those be your last set of sad tears. Look forward to the tears of joy you'll have when you reach your goal. Good luck to you on the 14th!
