After about a 10 months of going through this process, I was finally banded this past Friday (4/11/08).

I'm sore but soooo excited that I'm finally at this part. I know bandster hell is going to be.. well, hell... but I'm so ready. :biggrin2:

Grats, Whisper. Besides soreness, you're doing alright? Good to hear that your pumped up!

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!! I'm getting mine on WED!!! I'm sooo nervous. I actually have a bad stomach ache, and waiting for my MD to call me. Not sure what thats all about. Hope it's not a virus! Maybe it's from the yogert I ate lastnite. We'll see. I wish you best of luck!! Please give me details!!!!

Congratulations and good luck to you! Keep us updated on your progress.
