Beginning the Banding Process

My name is Racquel im 21 years old. I have been overwieght basically my whole life. I have tried diets and working out with no results. My mom was the one who recommended the Lapband Surgery to me and after looking into i realized this would be the best option for me. I am just beginning my Lap Band Process. I have my initial consultation on March 18,2011. I came to the site seeking support for others who have already been through the process . So Questions ask away???

I have questions of my own

Is there anything I should make sure to ask my doctor in my consultation?

How long after the consultation will the surgery occur?

Did you guys share with your close friends about the surgery?
