AUGUST SURGERIES AND FILLS

[Dolittle]

I see the girls at the OCC have been busy scheduling surgeries for August already. Where's the summer going? Patients are making changes in their lifestyles and have made the first step by choosing the Lap-band. So lets hear it from everyone that's scheduled for the month of August. Meet your new "Bandster Buddy" here at the forum. This way when you arrive at the clinic you'll already be friends.

Start Weight: 291

Goal Weight: 160

Surgery Date: 08/29/08

Long term goal: Become healthy, avoid the complications associated with obesity, break the genetic chain that has kept the family I was raised with riddled with health issues. Mostly live as long a life as possible with my incredible husband.

I am having my surgery Aug. 6. My husband got his band last Sept, so I know what to expect, but I am still a little nervous. I think the nervousness comes from a fear that the band won't work for me

Good luck with surgeries and fills!!

That sucks! It would have been cool to meet up! I'm excited to get my fill! We are not sticking around in TJ though. My husband's uncle is a travel agent and got us a nice room in San Diego on the bay/beach for 2 nights for 305 so can't beat that! LOL!

No need to Freek, just be happy with your decision to start a new journey. Start reading all the posts you can and you'll feel much more calmed down(I hope). Many of us here have felt exactly as you have and now we are well on our way to our weight loss goals. If you can't find the answer to a question just ask, someone will gladly reply. Agin my best advice at this point is to read, read, read. Perhaps get Dr. O's book. If you go to the OCC website it has a thing to click on as to where you can get it. Hope this helps
