WOW LESS THAN A WEEK TILL BANDDATE.

I'VE HAD MY GALLBLADDER OUT SO I KNOW SORTA WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR LAPROSCOPIC SURGERY SO SCARED NOT REALLY. READY TO GET THE SHOW ON THE ROAD.

Good for YOU! This is the best decision I made, I am now 48 yrs old, started a new life with my second husband in 2002, we have 2 small children together......and I want to see them grow up. I have lots to do yet, YOU do too, so ....let's do it!

I have found the lap-band to be a good tool, there is work in using it properly. As you read the posts, there is so much success. YOU will do great, it's wanting to, it's following through. Good luck, you have made a good choice! God bless ya, keep in touch Patti with a smile
