Ok so i'm so sorry. I had a list of all the October Bandsters and i've misplaced it. Someone was keeping name and dates for us all so we could keep in contact with each other. Please if anyone knows where i can find it send it to me. Next week i'll have a lot of time on my hands. lol I also want to check on those who's date is the same as mine.

October 1st here i come. A new beginning to a wonderful life.:tongue2:

My band operation is on the 3rd (Sat.)

I too was told not to diet. My BMI is 30-31.

I thought it was odd so I've been binge-ing : (

I decided to do a clense tomorrow by eatting only fresh juiced veggies & drinking a pre-surgery drink that will absolutely clean me out.

By Fri I should be completely empty. That will give me the 24hr fast I need and hopefully the jump start I nedd to drop this unwanted weight.

Good luck to you all!

October the 16th I've decided to celebrate it like a 2nd birthday

Only without the cake!!!

October 1st for me!

It's 12:16 AM PDT and I have to head to the hospital at 3:30 AM. I could probably fall asleep if I lay down but then I am afraid I might not wake up and then miss the whole thing.

About preop diet ?'s My doc only required 1 day prior to surgery be a clear liquid diet. All I had was Ice tea & Jello It wasn't so bad.

I look forward to checking in with you all soon. And to my fellow band mates of 10-1-09, Happy Band-day to you!!!:smile:

October 26th is my big day. I am very excited :smile:

Congrats Adrienne and all of the other October 1st bandsters! Hope you have a great day and can't wait to hear how great you're doing after surgery. Only 8 more days for me!

2 days to go!!!!!!

I am so ready!

I opted to do a 2 day fast (liquids only).

I can't wait to feel full!

My date is October 19th!! Soooo excited!!

Hi Angie,

Thanks! My day was AWESOME!!! I am doing good and feel really good to. At this point I only had a little pain as I was coming to in recovery. Now I would just say a little uncomfortable. Nothing I can't handle.

Good luck on yours!

October 8th for me. One more week on the "liver shrinking" diet.
