Hello - I'm Tina. I am scheduled for May 27th.

I changed my name from Seattleite to Seattlelight. Hopefully the new one will give me more inspiration!

May 22 for me!

Seattlelight... I am being banded on the same day... I live up here in Everett, WA... but being banded in Mexico..... I hope you stay on this board so I can see how things go with you as I travel down this journey too!

Ok, now I am getting nervous. Not about the procedure, but about some of the posts that I have been reading about people who are having little to no success with the band. I just read one this morning from someone who said that she only lost 2 pounds in 3 weeks.

I have to believe that these people are just not following the doctor's rules. It is my understanding that the band is a "tool" to be used in conjunction with healthy eating habits. If your head is not in the game, then you will not be as successful.

I say, "Let's show them" what success really is!!!

I know that I didn't make this commitment to not be successful....

If there are other bandsters reading this, PLEASE post your successes!!!!!

:thumbup: MAY 14 IS MY DAY TO BE SET FREE!

Thanks for keeping up the list, Bizzy! Here's a few more...are we missing anyone else?

Bandfan, I totally understand your concern, and I'm scared about the exact same thing. I just try to believe in my heart that this is the change that's going to change my life...I have to believe that this is going to work.

We must all remember that until you have enough fills to restrict you, you might not lose any weight at all... that is more norm. We are lucky if we lose before then. Each small step is a celebration and I do believe the more we follow the rules, exercise and DON'T find ways to eat around the band and take the time to heal properly, we will be more successful! I can't wait!

:w00t:Hey all you May Bandsters!! I am scheduled for May 22nd (WOO-HOO!) and is super excited!!!:tt2:

Oh my gosh, is it just me or is there something wrong with the website?? SLOW!!! I am getting so excited about the lap band. I can't wait to start my new life. I start the diet next Wednesday to shrink the liver. That I am not looking so forward to but I have my eyes on one goal and I am gonna see it through. Good luck everybody. It sure has been nice to read and talk to others to know what to expect. You guys are great!!

Hi Sharon!! It's not just you the website was moving EXTRA SLOW for me all day today until recently...so I have a lot of reading to catch up on!

Good, I have 3 computers and tried all of them. The web site was slow on all of them. It's getting better now though. My daughter doesn't live in McKinney, she lives in Texarkana an drives to McKinney to work because the money is so much better. She's an RN and the top pay around here is around 22 with 2 years experience but she is making like 37 there. So it is definitely worth the drive for her. Yes she is gonna be here for my surgery. I just verified that with her today. I thinkill be having it at a surgery center, hopefully won't be there long. Are you getting excited yet? I'll just be so glad to be able to get around better without being out of breath and aching all of the time. Life is defitely gonna look up for all of us. We're on the right track.

Hi all...This past 2 weeks have been CRAZY...I went to the Dr on April 15!!! They told me it would be 4-6 weeks(or longer) before they heard back from the insurance...well surprise surprise...I got my approval letter on April 21!!! I am scheduled for MAY 1st!!!!!!!!
