I'm from Iceland. Most of the people here are from the US I see. I recently travelled to the US for the first time and was at the most beutiful place I've ever seen. Thats Lake Tahoe California and Nevada. Have to say that northern California is extremely beutiful.

I've made up my mind I'm getting the band on november 22nd. I have to go abroad for my surgery since it is not peformed here but will be well taken care of :eek: I'm a bit nervous about the shoulder pain since I've had 3 C sections and had this shoulder pain in 2. It is extremely uncomfortable but it passes soon. How are you doing that have been banded so far?? Any regrets???

Hello everybody I could be banded in November, actually I haven't taken the final decision. I'm still weighing the pros and cons. I just got over 35 in BMI, have never been there before (always 32-33). But I've been on every diet known to man in my life and now I feel like I will never be able to get this under control without help. I'm putting on weight fast these days, I know I could lose some of it but I also know it will be a fight to keep it off. For me it is a big decision and this forum could really help me with it. How did you decide? Has it been a long process for you?
