Good luck!!! So excited for you

I'd like to thank everyone for their great comments, everyone of you mad great points, and I would take all of them into consideration, the reason I failed at dieting I was never fully satisfied, but knowing that the band would give me that little help that I need gives me hope. Thank you all for the great advice!

To the ones that don't know this, I don't have the band yet. I've been reading everyone's comments on here, and everyone talks about eating right, having limits, and living with the band, following a strict diet. the whole reason I've decided to get banded is due to the fact that I can't follow a diet, and when it comes to food I always make bad decisions I've failed at all weight loss plans, and pills. So here's my question why I'm I doing this if I have to diet anyway? Any comments appreciated. Thanks!

What kind of protein shakes? Like ensure?

Omg! I've been reading all the posts,and I'm laughing my butt off, it happens to everyone, I haven't broken anything, but one night I woke up in the middle of the night rolled over, didn't see my husband I started calling out for him, then I hear his voice it was kinda squishy he says " you're laying on my face" lol I will never forget that I'm cracking up just typing this comment up.

I know what you mean, I have to bake all day, then come home take care of my husband. I really have to lose my weight, I really want to be thin, or at least healthy, thank you.

I'm a cake decorator, I work with pastries on a daily basis. I really don't eat what I make, but I know myself I'm so weak at work when I'm dieting. I just hope this all works out for me. Anyone else work at the food industry?

I don't know if I'm doing this backwards, but I'm going to a seminar on the 16th, then my Dr appointment on the 26th, and the Dr I'm going to see does a one on one talk.

Hi! I'm not going to be able to make the 16th..I have a lap band seminar to go to. Maybe next time.

I hope I don't offend anyone, but my husband has been asking this question, I know there's some restrictions after lap band, but has the band affected your love life in any bad ways?

Good luck! Fingers crossed

I told my husband, emediat family, and two close friends. It's not like I'm going to post it on Facebook or anything. I've been overweight my entire life, and I feel that people have already judged me. But the main reason why my loved ones know, is because I know there the ones I'm going to need my support from, so pick the ones you trust, and love. I haven't even got my band yet, and thats the first thing I thought of, keep your head high. Lots of luck.

I'm in San tan valley, but close enough to Mesa, it's really comforting to know that I'm not the only one doing this.

Hi! Not banded yet, but that's a great idea.

Hello, I'm a newbe from San tan valley, I have my first consult with true results on the 26 th supper exited.

That would be great! Keep me posted on that.

Yeah they seemed nice on the phone, I'm super excited, and nervous at the Sam time. I'm hoping to get the surgery done at the Tempe center. And I have to thank you guys for the recommendations.

Thank you for all your help, my first consult with the office is Feb 26 I'm really excited.

Thank you all..I'll be stoking up on that.

So I've been reading a lot about the band, not getting enough nutrition was one of the issues, how is everyone's digestive system with vitamins? And I've also heard about hair loss is it true?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing lol.

Wow! Thats the same cost of the band. Good luck with that, wish you the best.

Just curious about the cost of cosmetic surgery. Things to keep in mind for future savings.
