well hmm where to start? I got the approval for the lap band surgery and my surgery date is 9-13-10! super excited to start a new beginning for myself. I dont have a lot of support through friends and family so i'm here in hopes that i can make some friends and get advice from people going through the same surgery as me! A little about myself...I'm 24 218lbs and 5'1. I have struggled with my weight for as long as i can remember. I have two daughters ages 3 and 4. I'm not too good on the info stuff haha, so if anyone has any questions or wants to know about me its just better to ask. Would be nice to find someone that is having surgery around the same time as me so i have someone i can compare with. Well hope to hear from someone soon! thanks! Jessica
