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!

Got banded on 9/7. Had to stay over because of my diabetes. Sleep most of Saturday. Had very little pain. After 5 days I'm very hungery but when to doctor today am doing very weel and he said I can have mushy food on friday . I can not wait. I really thought the pain and everything else would be worst then it was. Lost 4 lbs already.

Hi all,

My surgery date is 09/21. I would love to have someone with a surgery date that is close to mine that I can email to share progress. I don't know anyone who has had the surgery and I have nothing to compare it to. I am feeling a little nervous! Please let me know if you are interested.

Thank you!

Chris_77: I am being banded on 9/21 and would love to have someone on the same day to chat with.

Chris, I too am being banded on sept 21st. Where are you being banded? Mine is in Houston TX! Good luck to you, and this is the right decision. I too am nervous, but I feel as tho' we are doing the right thing.

Welcome to our journey Chris 77! This is a great place with Great people!!!

sept 7th bandsters, how are you doing? i am hungry now. I have to stay on liquids two weeks. hard to do! I am trying real hard, too scared to eat anything anyway. still have left sided pain, i think that is where my port is. This hurt more than my gallbladder surgery in may did. but it is getting better day by day. Just wondering if anyone on the 7th is going thru the same thing as me right now.

good luck everyone

Yikes! Tomorrow is my banding day! The hospital just called me with a time! I wish I could to sleep right now and wake up and it was done! This waiting is so hard! Thinking way too much! Good luck to everyone scheduled for 9/13! And congrats to everyone already done!

Good luck Cindy! Let us know how everything goes!

Wow Cindy - it is almost there! I am so excited with you! I hope that all goes well tomorrow and that you are a great bandster success!

Hi Kimmie - I am being banded on 9/18. I am nervous too, but I look at the thread "Before and After Pix" and I want to be able to post on their down the road. That is my motivation when my nerves try getting the better of me.

I wish you all the best on Friday with your banding. Please post as soon as you are feeling up to it. :gluck: Would love to hear how you are doing and any tips for beating the gas pains everyone talks about.

I leave for Denver Sunday evening. My preop is Monday afternoon and then I enter bandland on Tuesday morning at 11am.
