    I think everyone gets scared before... I know I did. I was banded on 1/11, but the weeks before i went buckwild and ate at every resturant that I could think of, because I thought i was never gonna be able to eat there again. If you feel that you can lose the weight on your on then go for it!! I just know personally I have too much weight and need this tool to help me achieve my goals. Theres gonna be alot of ups and downs with any diet, hell, with anything in life but its okay because everyday is a new day and the chance to start over. Are you feeling depressed about the surgery or just overall?? Feel free to talk with me..

    Don't be so hard on yourself, we all have those days. I am so happy to hear you are having yours at around the time I will be getting it. Mine is scheduled for the 14th of Feb. Hope all goes well with yours, don't get discouraged we all have them days.

    I got pretty nervous before my surgery also. Pain after surgery, but not really any worse than when I had emergency gall-bladder surgery. The surgery is well worth it. For me, the potential benefits were too great not to have it. Good luck to you.
