Congrats to everyone and i wish all us may bandsters good luck. Im may 8 also and plan to do well.

Here's a shout-out for my fellow May-bes! After much waiting, I'm going into surgery on May 18th, in Australia.

Since I'm a teacher and the 18th is a Monday I plan to have the whole week off work. (My boss has been very accommodating, although he thinks I'm having a hernia operation.)

Best of luck to you all, I look forward to hearing about your journey!

Hi All, I have been moved to May for my band. The date hasn't been set until blood test results return. I do have approval from insurance though so all is well. I'm excited about this!

Welcome, everyone! So glad to see more May dates coming along. We have a May 2009 group set up called the Mayo BANDitos, and we'd love for you to come over to that board and join us! On the main discussion page, check under Groups by Month, then click on May 2009.

C'mon over and join in the discussions! :)

Mayday - scheduled May 7th - good luck to all of us

starting my liquid diet April 27th, same day I have my preop visit. Here's to liquid protein!

I'm Scheduled for May 8th...my wife will be going first, on april 17th, just one week from now!

Good luck to both of you. I am your neighbor in Bedford and am waiting for a surgical date. Please let us know how you both are doing. Where is your surgery going to be? I have to go to Austin.

Hello-

I am new and my surgery is scheduled for May 4th! I would love to join the May Banditos club but can't seem to figure out where to find it?

Yea for May! I'm on the 8th, it's quickly approaching.

I quit my job in December because it was so terrible. I didn't think I'd still be out of work, but maybe it's a little bit of divine intervention so I don't have to worry about rushing back to work before I'm ready or what I'd tell my boss. At least that's the way I'm choosing to look at it!

Hello all, I just got the call. I will be scheduled for May 7th, my pre-op is this friday April 24th. I am getting nervous. :crying:

Hi everyone my husband and I are both May bandsters. Hubby is in first on the 4th of May and I am a week later on the 11th of May.... Great to see we have such a great place to come and catch up. We too are also excited...Good luck to everyone
