I am now allowing myself to get excited. I got a call 2 days ago that my surgery is going to be next week Sept 22, 2006.
I just decided on my personal goals.

Sept 22, 2006 267 lbs band date
Oct 22, 2006 247lbs
Jan 1, 2007 217lbs
Jun 1, 2007 180 lbs
Sept 22, 2007 167lbs.

Maybe it is too much to dream of loosing 100lbs since I havent seen that weight since JR High. But this is a new advanture so dreaming high is what I plan to do.......

Well I am now allowing myself to get excited about getting the band....
I have been trying for over 2 yrs and I got my approval letter in July but still did not let myself think about it too much. But I see the Dr on Sept 6th for my final appointment and then I get my surgery date. The office told me it will be 3-4 weeks after my visit my the Dr. Today I found this site and read all the stories and stuff and now I cant wait to get the surgery so I can get started.
Currently I am 269...
