Hi Karen!

I am in Georgetown and I am just beginning my journey. I would love to have someone to talk to who has recently been though the process!

Wow! You got yours put in two days after I did. How are you doing? Im doing great and the initial pain is almost completely gone. I am off the liquid diet 3 days early and started smooth foods because I did not want to get sick at work. So far, so good. I've lost 7lbs since surgery and I feel good. I'm about to go for a walk. Hope you're doing well, too!

Hi, my name is Tina. I'm 50 years old and am just starting the whole proceedure before the surgery. I don't even have a date set yet. I'm wondering how you've handled things so far. Did you have to go through a bunch of stuff before surgery? How much have you lost so far? Are you having many problems post-op? Since you are very new at this, I'd really like your input! Thanks!

I was just banded on Monday, March 28--Can't offer much more than support.
