[Brie_SDmamaofTwins 4]

Hello,

I was just seeing if anyone else was going to be banded next month? I don't have a date YET but my last appt. is dec.29th and then I'll find out my surg date.:biggrin:

I'm excited and nervous and all of the above. I'm dreading next week(x-mas FOOD) I have to lose 5 lbs and I know it doesnt seem like alot but it's not a walk in the park like i assumed it was going to be.:thumbup: My plan is to make smart chocies and to start Protein Shakes and lean cusines for dinner. Oh and of course forceing myself to get to the gym. It's so hard these days with the weather and the babies but no excuses. I need to do this and I will.

But anyways I was just wondering if anyone was going to be banded? Also if you are banded and started out at 230 how long did it take you to drop the weight to about 160?!

:cool2:Thanks~

Hi,

I am scheduled 1/19 in Mexico. I would like to lose 75-80 lbs. I have been very nervous since I set the date. I have two friends that have had the band done with DR Joya and have done very well. I have read as much about him and his successes and or failures (which I haven't found)as I could find. Hope all goes well with you. Keep me posted.

Hi -

I know it's been a few months for you both. Curious to know where you are now - Did you have the surgery - Was it worth it at your beginning BMI...etc. Would love an update!!!
