Hi everyone I was banded on the 17th! I did well after surgery and really have not had any signifigant pain, but I am still not feeling totally myself. Like I thought I would be back to work on Monday 1 week later and there is no way that is happening. I am not hungry whatsoever, but I am so tired and run down. I am also feeling a little of the blues:( I hope this is normal and that I can bounce back quickly! Amy

At only 5'2 I feel like I have always been overweight. All of my friends have always been smaller than me and I have aloways been so insecure about myself. I have terrible posture now, and I really think that it has a lot to do with being big and having a bigger chest and always trying to hide myself. I am going to be banded on 3/17 only 1 week!! I am so scared. I go through moments of extreme excitement to why am I doing this. I have to keep reminding myself of the good that I am doing for my body. I lost my dad when he was only 57 to his second stroke, and I absolutely have to do something about the cycle I am on become that person. I haven't posted much, but I am so glad that I found this site I really enjoy baing able to talk to people who are going through all of the same things I am. Good luck to you all!! Amy

I have never posted before, but I am also going to be banded on the 17th!! I am so excited and nervous at the same time. Good luck to you! AmyMarie
