Hi. I'm from the San Antonio area and had my individual evaluation on May 14th. Dr. Carcamo will be my surgeon as well. I am scheduled to see the nutritionist on June 10th.

I just started my two-week Atkins diet on Wednesday. I have absolutely no energy right now, hopefully it gets better soon. As of right now I will be having my surgery on June 25th with Dr. Carcamo. They said it was a tentative date so I hope nothing changes. Best of luck Drew05 and GinaJ.

Hey Drew and Gina,
I was banded this morning! I was told to be there at 6:30 a.m. and that my surgery would probably be around 9:00 or 9:30. I think someone may have cancelled today though because I was in the OR by 8:00. I was walking out the doors there a little after 11:00 and was home by 12:30. My DH is great and is taking great care of me. So is my mom. Everything went great. I am hardly in any pain and I hope it stays that way. Just some gas pains in my chest and in my left shoulder. I was happy to see that I lost 10 pounds on my pre-op diet. Well, I'm off to bed. Just wanted to update you. Hope all is well with you!

Jeanette

Hey there merry San Antonian Bandsters:),

I wish your success with your upcoming surgeries and luck with the band. This is a great site. I use it when I need encouragement...which right now happens to be everyday.

I was banded by Dr. Stegemann through New Dimensions Weight Loss.
