20-lb weight vest

My physical therapist said something encouraging to me tonight. She said she estimated I'd be in about 90% less pain once this weight is off.   Her comparison: she wears a 20-lb weight vest when she walks on the treadmill. She says it feels SO GOOD to just be able to unzip that vest and take it off at the end of a workout.   Just think about MULTIPLES of that vest. What we're doing isn't quite as quick as being able to unzip a "fat suit" - but the next best thing!:biggrin:

Got a date today -

Date tentatively set for Jun-3 2009, pending final pre-op testing. Hope I don't come down with the swine flu in the meantime   Thanks to the kind words from visitors to my blog. I have had company for a few weeks and need to catch up with my "correspondence" on this wonderful site.   Keep up the good work, Bandsters!

Got the phone call from the surgery center yesterday! It's wonderful to hear that the long nightmare is just about over.   :smile2:

Last appointment tomorrow!

Thank goodness this six-month wait is going to be over - really gets long between four and six.   Got all my paperwork together, hopefully it's full steam ahead :thumbdown:

First post -

Great site - lots of inspiration here!   I'm also looking for others who were born with congenital hip disorder. It's been a long downward spiral - lots of extra weight on a bad hip and back, very painful. Expecting to get banded in Apr 09.   Starting BMI 45.3 Weight 264
