Hi
I'm also in Richmond. I'm being banded April 4 at St. Mary's by Dr. Brengman. I feel the same...anxious, scared, thrilled. I just have to believe that this is the right thing to do. I have been overweight for the last 30 years of my life and I'm ready to do what it takes to be healthy once and for all. Keep talking to people at this site. I've found so much inspiration and support here. I'd be happy to write or talk about my experience with you since I will be going through it a couple of weeks before you. Maybe that will help you be a little less anxious. Be strong!
Kim
