TraceyR, Are you required to do a diet and weight loss process before surgery? I found out that I need to. I've lost 6 pds so far. That's the funny thing, I'm a pro at losing.. Keeping it off, not so much.. Mindy

Hello, Thanks so much for responding. I have just started and I know that I have a long way to go..

Hello, I am new here, too. I am still trying to figure things out. I, too, recently decided to get banded after years of putting it off. I just keep getting bigger and bigger. After yet the 100th try at Weight Watchers, I said that is it. I must do something. I am a pro at losing weight, I just can't keep it off. This seems like a great place for support. I hope that we can stay in touch and travel this journey.

Hello, I am new here too. I am just starting the process. I had my first appt with doctor and my psych evaluation. I have to do three months of diet and exercise which is a little worrisome. I won't probably be banded until January 2011. I'm excited and I just want to get through the process successfully. Thanks for creating a space for discussion, questions, support, and answers. I look forward to months of interaction. Thanks, Mindy:smile2:
