December 2009

Where are the december 2009 bandsters? Either I'm not looking in the right place or they are pretty quiet. I've got a Dec. 2 2009 surgery date. I'm a little nervous about the whole thing and really want to be compliant with the program. Of course my willpower isn't so great or I wouldn't be here. I'll be starting Optifast on November 18. Thanksgiving on the stuff will be interesting as I have to cook.

Anybody out there with concerns, questions or just wantto let off a little steam?

Hi sexygma130, It's cool we'll be getting banded about the same time. Yeah, I'm a little apprehensive about the surgery also but I've had several elective surgeries before and it's been fine. I guess what mostly concerns me is the TOTAL change in eating habits we'll have to make. Like always making sure I have the right kinds of food available. I guess also it means paying total attention to my needs-something a lot of women are not accustomed to doing. I just receoved some Protein samples to try out. They're Unjury brand which are supposed to taste ok. I wouuld suggest spending some time reading these forums. There's a wealth of knowledge here.

Hi diana1,

I just happened upon this thread - didn't even know it existed! There are so many. I'll add your name to the list of December Bandsters 2009 (in the 'Pre-Op' forum). A lot of nice people post on that thread. Hey... December 1st is less than 15 minutes way (pst)! It's almost your big day! Aww, I'll be thinking about you tomorrow. Good luck!
