Nobody else with a March date yet?

I'm schudule for March 2, 2009.  I've been approved since May08.  I'm having the Lap Band done at Fort Gordon GA. (Eisenhower Medical Center).  I'm one of the first they are doing for the band.  Got the call about the 4 of February 08.  I'm excited and determined that this tool is going to work for me.  Need some supporters because I got some haters around.

I finally received my date some time in December of 2008.  I was just about to switch surgeons and they penciled my down for March 3, 2009 which was a cancellation.  That date was finalized on January 7th at my surgeon consulation.  I was approved for my surgery on August 21, 2008.....so I have been waiting this long to finally get a date.  I am happy now so can't complain.

March 16th for me-- I am going to Dr Joya in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. Cant wait!

Did you look at Dr Alvarez, as well? I am scheduled with him for March 10th. I looked at both surgeons but don't have a passport so decided on Dr. Alvarez because no passport necessary (since you cross the border by car not plane).

I am scared to tears!

 Just had my date set today! Woohoo.  My lapriscopic RNY is on March 16th.  Good luck to everyone with upcoming surgeries.  

March 30!!! It was the 23rd but they called and told me my Surgeon's wife was having a baby that day....hope he's not in a hurry to get home and see the baby!

 i will be having RNY done on march 6th, cant wait! Good luck to all of you.

I have my RNY on March 5th.  I have been on the EAS protein/carb shakes for a month solid now of just that, no food.  My doctor only requires it for 3 weeks prior to surgery but I got a good start on it, am down 25lbs now, want to be down another 25 before surgery.  I have been working out for an hour a night between doing the biggest loser workout and working out on my total gym.

I just got my date today.  RNY on March 9th.

Just got my date today, March 2nd. See a few other CT people in this thread are also having theirs the first week of march, good luck everyone.
