I was told my insurance has approved the surgery (yeah!), so I had good news in the midst of my mom's passing last week. My date, not absolute, is July 22! I meet with the surgeon on Tuesday, and do some of the preop tests Monday with my regular dr.!

Scheduled to be banded on the 20th....having trouble with low carb pre op diet....I sure hope this works for me.....I have tried everything else .....

Goodmornig all. I just wanted to tell you today is my day I'm going to Monterrey, Mexico. Wish me Luck and Success with getting banded. My surgery is July 12, 2005 but I'm leaving July 10 so that I can get settle in comfortablly. My bestfriend is going with me. Hope to hear from you all when I get back. Luv ya and God Bless.

Congrats SWilliams. I guess you are about to head out. What surgeon are you using?

DeeJay,

Is there a specific low-carb diet that you were put on (such as South Beach, Atkins, etc)?

My date is July 20th. Can hardly weight..

Good luck to all of us..July bandsters!

Scheduled to be banded on July 20. Even though hubby has been banded for a year now...I am still nervous.

Good luck to all of us!

Scheduled date 7/20

Dr. Speigel - Houston, TX

Count me in , please!

Mandy,

Please take me off of the July list to be banded. I waited to long to confirm my date and had to change to August 6th.

Thanks,

Barbara

OMG! Two days to go for me! Tomorrow is clear fluids, and Wednesday, July 13 is my date! Wheee... here I go....

Mandy, my name wasn't on the list - I'm to be banded tomorrow, at 1:00!!!! July 12 for me..............Good luck to everyone! AmyK

I want to wish my fellow July banders the best of luck in your procedures. I am so excited to be having this done and to have so many new friends to get to share it with! Thank you all for being here and shareing your experiences here for all to see. I have learned so much!

Barb...my heart goes out to you for having to wait until next month.

Thanks beaufultina. I was really ready to do it in July but, it is nobody's fault but my own for having to wait until August because I drug my feet figuring the date wouldn't get booked. I thought I could wait until closer to the last minute to decide on the surgeon! I just seem to think I haven't done enough research on the differetn surgeons. When the fact is I have asked questions of people, and wore out my computer the last two months and I have for sure gotten my money's worth out of unlimited Internet usage.

Banded July 5 by Dr. Ortiz!
