That's just around the corner. Hope all your preparations are going well.

Mine is the 18th, good luck to you!

IF YOU LADIES HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON HOW IT FEELS TO BE BANDED, LET ME KNOW. I WAS JUST BANDED ON OCTOBER 5TH AND I HAVE LOST 11PDS. NO QUESTIONS ARE STUPID. PLEASE ASK IF YOU NEED HELP. SEE YA!!:Bunny

Lots of new bandsters coming up throught the ranks!! I'm so excited for all of us!

I was banded 9/15. Still on the mushies phase. Not feeling any restriction yet. Gaining back the weight I lost on the liquid phase - not worrying about it after reading a gazillion posts from the wise and wonderful people here - that it's normal and not to worry until I get a fill!

I'm looking forward to being us a bunch of losers!

BETTY, Your being banded the 18th? Wow, that just crept right up on me! Congrats girl, get ready to do some strength training to hold that Harley up W/O using your weight to your advantage.

LOVE ME, You were banded on the 5th, OMG! That snuck up on me.

live2, your right you just wait for your fill! You'll start dropping the weight, My second fill has made a huge difference! I'm having to relearn what all I can eat.

Mrs. Queen Michelle, You let me know when you're going to any sort of bash because I want to go. You can be my seragant mama if you don't mind since I don't have one.

I think all of us newbies ought to get togather for a bash of our own! What do ya think?

I got an idea for us newbees for the trip...Lets to to Vegas lol

Good luck to all

Greg

Vegas sounds good to me!

I'm game for just about anything other than having it at my house!

I say VEGAS HERE WE COME!!!

Hey, ya'll! This is QueenMichelle's surgery day! Good luck to you!

I heard it gets really hot there and I sweat so much because of my fluff, I could never go there. After I get banded I will use the money I save from buying food to go!!! I want to be one of those people who bitches it is too cold when it is 70* and sunny.

Want to let everyone know Michelle came thru the surgery just fine. I went to visit her at the hospital. They changed her time from 8:30 this morning till 11am. So she wasn't in her room when I got there but still in recovery. AS I was leaving to head home they brought her down. She look great. "said I'm hungry" lol She is having some gas pains but other then that she looks good and is smiling. She got the same room and bed I had. It was a good bed for me so hope its the same for her.

I'm sure she'll be on here tomorrow when she gets home.

Greg, have you thought about what you're going to do when you're under goal by Christmas? Hey, don't expect any sympathy from me! LOL

Yes I have thought about it. I'll probably have a good cry as things are going so well for me that I can't handle it LOL... but I'm going to take a Christmas drink as my treat. If for some reason I don't then no rum and flat diet coke LOL.

Where is Mrs. Queen Michelle? Is she ok?

I got a pm from michelle yesterday.

She was doing great. Told me she was up and around in her room shortly after my visit. She appears to be pretty happy about the experiance and I will let her tell it when she comes on. She stayed at her dads for a few days.

Michelle we're all waitng to hear from you.
