Well, I guess it is time to get a list going! Please post your online name and your surgery date here so we can find Banding Buddies! You know, someone to commiserate with during days of Bandster Hell, and someone to share Non Scale Victories (NSV) with - like tying your shoes without having the laces crooked. Maybe one day, we can even have a mass "granny pantie" burning!

I'm scheduled for 9/5!

Hi Michelle...my surgery is on Sept. 17, 2007 also, so I guess that makes us band buddies. I am so ready for this surgery to happen! I am new to this forum as I usually post on ObesityHelp.com. I don't know if I am even doing this post correctly...we will see what happens.

Welcome to all the newest band-to-be's!

PCracker, GA, 9/4 for me and ready to go.

Margaret, you are the closest to my age, do you want to be my lap band buddy? I am juliacleone age 51, I am going to Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Acuna Mexico Sept 28th. I can't wait!!

Scheduled for Sep 12 in Raleigh NC!

Hi Everyone! My date is 9/7/07. I am nervious, but i cant wait.

Mine is Sep. 6th with Dr. Ortiz! Yeah!!! I can't wait

Hi, Looks like Sept 7th @ Hackensack Hospital by Dr. Ewing

Hello, this is Nan from Hemlock MI. My banding is scheduled for Sep 11. pending insurance authorization. I originally was scheduled last Feb 13, but my BCBS denied it because I have not been in a structured weight loss program for 12 consecutive months (only 6 mos)..well it's now been a little over 12 mos now, and I have all my documentation, and I'm ready for my surgery. I should find out this week about the insurance go ahead. But, I was told by the RN at the Bariatric Center they WILL approve this time!!

Hi everyone!! My name is Sue. I'm from Long Island, NY. I will be banded on Sept 4th by Dr. Geiss. I'm so excited, not nervous or scared at all, I know I've made a good decision for myself. Look forward to getting advice and learning much from all of you on this site!!

:whoo:

Hello all my surgery is 9/17 with Dr. Noel Williams in Philadelphia, PA

GO Banders!!!!!

Getting banned on September 7. Paper work sent to insurance on Aug 3 approved Aug 10

Hi everyone. I am getting banded on Sept. 10th. I am mostly nervous that 1. after all the work it took to get time off something will happen and my surgery will get canceled and 2.what if I don't lose weight this time. Glad to have a group out there to go through this with. Elizabeth.

I agree, I am afraid of going all the way to TJ and then not being able to have my surgery or having to have it postponed :faint:Especially since I have everything all taken care of, child care, airfare, ect.... I just have to keep positive and hope that all will go smoothly!!!:car:
