Scared? Nervous? Excited?

Hello!! I am new to this page, I just joined today.

I have so many questions about lapband and what to do, I do not know where to start. How many of you have had it and love it? Hate it? How well did it work? How long ago was it?

I am 29, I will be 30 in November, and I do not remember when I weighed less then 200lbs. I need to do something and I want to do it. But I am nervous. Can anyone give me some advice?

let me try to answer some of your questions:

I've had the band for about 6 months now, Sugery on Oct 23, 07. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT.

if you wanna talk, hit me up. I am by no means a PERFECT bandster, and I am learning along the way.

I have been banded since 24th Nov 07 and have lost 7stone or 96lb. It has changed my life big time as I never went out only to go to work now I love walking my 2 dogs and hate staying in. I wish I got it done years ago. If you want to e-mail me elaine-mcloughlin@hotmail.co.uk
