  1. you were able to start zumba 5 days after your surgery? THATS AWESOME! i was so worried about stuff like that. i havent gotten banded yet but when i do im going to immediately return to my zumba class! i love to dance so i love Zumba. Who knows maybe i can be the next instructor at my gym!
  2. ive gone through all the pre op steps to get banded, i am actually going to see my doctor tomorrow to take about my results and surgery. I just wanted to get a chance to talk to others my age who have gone or are going through this process. I was looking at some before/after pics online and was FREAKED out by all the people who had so much loose skin. I was wondering if this is a problem with people our age. I dont want to have to have cosmetic surgery after this.. my goal is to actually never have surgery again unless its abosolutely necessary. So how has your journey been so far??
