My sister, my daughter and I are all getting banded on NOV 2. We are on the diet and looking forward to it all. This is a great site for information. I have learned a lot.

I am being banded Nov 9 by Dr. James Debord - Peo, IL

I am definately ready and very anxious and nervous at the same time. Each day I hear more horror stories about recovery and inability to eat. BUt I am trying to block those out....lol

I am working up until the day before surgery and planning on returning to work the following thursday. I am being optomistic that I can do this. I don't have more time than that to take since I started my new job in June.

I wish everyone luck, that is being banded with me this next month.

Hugz,

Kristin:)

I'm getting banded Nov. 2 by Dr. Yau in Toronto. I'm not nervous at all for some reason. I'm sure it'll hit me when I'm about to go under. I'm so excited! =) Good luck everyone!

I am getting banded Nov 1st and I am so excited and can hardly believe it's real. Even though everything is all set to go I keep thinking maybe it's not going to really happen.

I will be getting banded nov 27 -- as long as I can get my BMI down to 50

If I do that then I will save $5,000!!

My doctor has the option to do the surgery at their out patient center or at the hospital. I qualify for the out patient center if I have the 50 BMI,, I currently have 55 BMI.

If I don't make it by then, I will reschedule for Dec.

I'm nervous but sooo happy

:clap2:

I'm being banded on the 14th. For some reason I'm not really nervous about actually being banded. What I'm really really really nervous about is the recovery. I'm a total wimp when it comes to pain.

starryeyed - I feel ya! I keep waiting for a call telling me they're going to change my surgery date

Lizzy o7. We are going to be banded on the same day. Same Dr, Yau. We are also very close in weight and have the same goal. How's the diet going?

Do you live in TO? I'm in Winnipeg. Going to stay for 5 days to make sure I can fly home in fair shape.

I'm anxious but keeping it together.

I will be banded Nov. 5th. I get butterflies in my stomach everytime I think of it. Everybody at my job is wishing me good luck. My ESL students too.
