Judy, that live surgery was crazy. It kind of freaked me out, but I have come too far to quit now! It is really gonna happen!

Oct 13th here, with Dr. Bauman in Concord, NC. Starting to "nest" kinda like the last few weeks of pregnancy...lol. I've been organizing, planing, making lists...you'd think I'd be leaving hubby in charge for more than a day. LOL Anyone else doing this as an outpatient?

I'll finally be banded on October 11th. Very excited right now and can't believe how fast this last week has gone. At first my date was 7 weeks out and I thought it would never get here - now the closer it gets, the faster time seems to be going. The only thing I can compare it to is maybe being 5 years old and waiting for Santa! Love this site and am so glad that we are all here together....

Hi bbblampwork - congratulations on your 10/11 date. You may want to join the discussion on an different thread, "any october bandsters!??!?!" within the pre-operation lap-band surgery Q & A forum. There you will find a large listing of us being banded in October and can have you name and date added to the list. Hope to see you there!

I was banded Oct 3, today was my first check up (no fill) and I've lost 8 lbs since the surgery and 16 total.

Welcome everyone, and congrats on being a Smashing Pumpkin!

My date is the 24th. It's been eight months since I started this journey and even though I thought it would never end, it went pretty quick. These last two weeks are a killer. I can't wait.....
