Congratulations that is wonderful...I'm going thru pre-op testing now and hoping for a sept. surgery date. I also have 2 small kids and its great to hear that you are able to have a normal dinner time with the family...one of my concerns....among so many others! Looking forward to hearing more success from you!

You are truly an inspiration!! I am just beginning this wild ride with the beginning of my testing phase. I can't wait to get the band and begin the journey. I see from all of you what hard work it is but i am ready, willing, and thankfully able to begin this amazing journey and transformation. Stories like yours fill me with hope and excitement about what may lay ahead for me. I know everyones' journey is so very different but I like to hang my hope on those successful stories such as yours. Congrats and thanks again for being an inspiration....you look amazing...love your pics!!

Had my consult and even went to an informational/support group- it was good. Am beginning all of the testing. Definitely getting the band just trying to decide if I want it with plication which my doc is offering me- like the sleeve but they dont cut your stomach-they fold and suture it to make it smaller. Im a bit obsessed with researching and reading all that I can. Everyone here is such an inspiration and I am getting such wonderful information! Im looking forwad to learning from everyone here

You are all very inspirational. Hi, I am beginning all of my pre-op tests and unfortunately have the 6 month supervised diet with my doctor. I've been researching and researching and researching and have been spending alot of time here seeing what people's experiences have been. You are doing great...I am hoping to have the band as soon as I can... Looking forward to following your progress and to continue to be inspired by you! Thanks!
