Hello Everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself here as I start my journey. I was just banded last tuesday and except for the first 36 hours after my surgery, things have been going pretty well. I have to admit though, I was really second-guessing this whole thing at first. I was convinced that I had made a horrible mistake and just was devastated! However, my surgeon was awesome, assured me that everything was normal, and that I just had to be strong for a little while longer before I would feel better. He was right, and I've been doing very well since.
I've lost 15 pounds so far, and while I figure that it is mostly Water weight and not anything to expect to be normal, I'm still ecstatic! It took me 3 months of cardboard food on NutriSystem to do that before! Still working hard at getting my water and Protein in, but I know that I can do it. Looking forward to learning as much as I can from all of you!

Congrats! As others stated this is an awesome forum. I'm 1 week away yippie!
