new here

Hi everyone, my name is Jamie and I am new here. I am hoping to be banded in the spring. I am super excited. I wish my hubby was as excited, but hopefully he will come around. Any advice on do's and don'ts or anything would be fantastic. I love reading stories about everyone's experience.

I'm sure he will. Even if he doesn't there isn't much I can do to help him at this point. He just refuses to listen and accept it....

Hi, new too. I just got banded on the 16th. Insurance was super quick and I had the surgery before I even knew what was happening. I was surprised but happily. This surgery is about you and it is your husbands loss to not go thru your experience with you. Just focus on you and hopefully you have friends or some other support system. Good luck on everything.
