Wednesday I went to the all day pre-op class that my doctor's office requires and then we had our surgeries scheduled! I FINALLY have my date! I can OFFICIALLY say that I will be a December Bandster! YAY! I am SO excited and I am THRILLED that this is FINALLY on it's way! I have to do a two week liquid diet before hand that starts the day before Thanksgiving though......

CONGRATULATIONS!! You will be joining us on the losers bench in no time. I wish you a speedy recovery. :biggrin:

Thanks Astramom! I'm SO excited! It's been a long fight and I am SO ready to get the band so I can start moving forward with the rest of my life and start LIVING again!

You will be so amazed at the results let me tell you. I have lost 36 pounds all together. 25 lbs since surgery. 36 with the pre admission diet. I have much more energy already. Although I have much more to go I think I most of it is confidence that I am actually losing for once and it keeps going instead of coming back. I like myself again.

Thanks for the encouragement! I can't wait to see the scale steadily moving again! I've lost 65 pounds on my own, but, now, it's getting harder and harder. I'm so looking forward to starting life again once I've lost the weight! There's a LOT that I used to do that I REALLY want to do again! I can't wait!

Wow, my surgery date is 12/9 also. (Small world ! LOL)

I am a little nervous, you know the unknown and all that. But from reading these sites I have learned a lot and it has eased my worry alot.

Good luck to you. I hope all goes well.
