  1. yes, I understand what you're saying very well. I get my band on the 21st. I too am so embarrassed. I have lost the weight more times than I care to count and always gain it back. I am either losing weight or gaining. Never maintaining. I have only told the people that MUST know. I don't know when or if I'll tell or not. They are doing a hiatel hernia repair at the same time so that's what I'm going in for. (yeah)
  2. what is ps? Hope your soreness goes away soon.
  3. I'm on the other end of the age question. I just turned 65 and having my band done on May 21. After fighting my weight since grade school, I'm ready! I bet I've lost 1000 lbs and gained it back over the years. I'm only (about 60) overweight this time but on my way up. I decided to do this after my daughter did so well. I'm in Arizona. Let me hear from ya all.
  4. Please, what do you mean you have nothing good to say about the band???
  5. not yet. may 21st is the big day.
  6. thank you. I see you're in Everett. My daughter lices in Sultan and is banded. She is the one that has inspired me the most.
  7. hello everyone. I'm due to get my band May 21. I am 64. Anyone out there got theirs in their 60's? Do most meds come in liquid form? Sherry
