If the band does its part, I?ll do mine!

Okay I’m writing this because I’ll get my band one week from tomorrow and I’ve subconsciously be worried about being a failure. What if it’s doesn’t work? What if I gain the weight back and more? What if…what if…. What if? Then I found my-self looking for posts from others who have had their bands removed for various reasons. Well enough of that. My surgeon told me realistically what I could expect from my band 60-65 percent of my excess weight which means that since I’m about 130 lbs overweight I could expect to lose 70-80lbs. That is 70-80lbs less that I weigh now which would put me somewhere around 190lbs. Now to some that is still a lot of weight but for me it’s a lot less than that 279lbs. What I’m saying is I don’t expect to come out of this wearing a size 2 however if I can get to 10-12 that would be great. I willing to work my butt off for that 10-12 and it the band does it s part, I’ll do mine. There is no point of doing this If I’m not going to follow the rules, eat right and exercise. Anyway no more negative post reading for me I’m getting me band, I’m going to let it help me and I will be a success. You anti-banders will have one less person to listen to your rants sorry. Good Luck everyone
