    Hi and Welcome! You'll do fine with the band. I was much the same as you - tired of the diet rollercoaster, and ready to get the ball rolling. Surgery went easily, and recovery was by-the-book. Now, nearly eight months later, I can't believe how far I've come. All things considered, it's been a breeze.

    Good luck, and here's hoping you'll be able to report nothing but good news!

    Good luck with your surgery. I'm getting banded on August 12. It's the beginning of a new life :)
