I'm scared too. I keep thinking that I won't succeed and then I will have spent tons of money for nothing.

July 2nd is my date! It's exciting to see so many people being banded on the same day as me. I'll be thinking of you all when they are rolling me into the OR crying! I'm going to be so emotional... scared/happy/excited/nervous/any emotion you could possibly think of!

Good luck guys! :drool:

I don;t have a specific date yet, but considering I went to the cardiologist today for my initial exam for my medical clearance and scheduled my stress test for the 19th of this month, I am pretty sure my surgery will now be in the beginning to mid July. WooHoo!!

Hey, me too! July 22, W/DR.Rod in Juarez good luck everyone

I go for my last (3 month) weight check this month. My surgeon is shooting for the end of July if insurance gets approved. Say a prayer for me!

I'm scheduled for July 9th. I just gave my work the doc's note. Thank god they didnt ask any questions. Had a whole bunch of things ready to tell them except the truth. It's not that i don't believe in what i'm doing, just that i don't need the freakin corporation to know about it...500 people word gets around fast!!!

I am getting banded in july 29 sooooooo excited

July 9th for me!! I am scared too! We can all get through this together

Woo Hoo! I was told by our coordinator my surgery would be in July. She cannot give a firm date until I have my 2nd consult with the surgeon, but I will have all my requirments completed by the end of June and I also have to do a two week pre-op liquid diet. Do we have a group name yet?

I am also scheduled for July 8 and I am also wondering if I am doing the right thing. :eek: I think it is the first few weeks that have me worried the most. I have SO MUCH going on, with being a single mom to 7 kids, a new litter of puppies, and my ebay business. Do I really have time to do this? I am NOT canceling, some how I am going to make it fit my schedule!

:incazzato:
