  1. That's good to hear though as my big day is comin soon:) you know what else is nice? That there is barely no complications on the board, granted its a newer surgery, but that's still nice! Keep in touch! Are you still on liquids then?
  2. Good for you! Please do as I will be there on dec 3!
  3. What is the difference in feeling? Just curious as I considered the band initially:)
  4. Mine too... Just booked my plane tickets and all Paid up... And feel like throwing up!!!
  5. Dec 3! I haven't looked at the Internet lately so I'm not near as worked up as I was lol...
  6. Please let me know! I'm going in two weeks;)
  7. I know you guys are right. My husband asks me, "why don't you get the sleeve? It's the same price, higher weight loss, permanent, no ghrenalin..." My answer is... Idk. There's something just too permanent about it. ( my mom had it done and was in the 1%) she almost died and still has complications 7 mos later. So it's also more intrusive. Maybe I am comforted in some way by not hearing any bad things about post plication... Maybe because there is not enough data, maybe because its just safer. Who's to say... I suppose its the fear most of us prob have about failing too. Like what if I pay this money and it doesn't work (is this possible?) will I wish I had the sleeve? It must work right? People have it done, where r they lol? I wish this forum was busier.. One can take comfort in hearing others stories. So thank you two for sharing, it means a lot to me:) any successes you have or nsv you would like to share would be appreciated:)
