:rolleyes:I am new to this site as well have found some really interesting comments so far & am looking forward to being able to learn as I go alomg from some of you that have a heads up on us.. I love reading the success storys people have had & can only hope with time I can become one of them.. I have been over weight all of my life (I DID LOSS 125 LBS. & KEPT IT OFF FOR 8 YEARS ).. but now cannot seem to lose 10 lbs. then comes the battle with depression & the feeling of being unattractive.. I lost my husband of 28 years , then was in a relationship for almost 4 , but now find myself starting over again.. I just have to find & keep the motivation to change everthing.Thanks for listening & look forward to chatting & hopfully meeting & sharing on here..

good luck tomorro! I am just starting the process of doctors appointments and getting past all of the insurance huddles. I hope to be banded sometime later this year and although im new this website has really helped me. Let us know how the first appointment goes!

Good luck! Tell us how it goes?
