Thursday is the Day!

i hope to use this forum as support after i get my surgery, so i thought i would go ahead and introduce myself now before my surgery. My name is max and i am 18 and i will be banded this thursday the 2nd of febuary. I will be banded by Dr. Jason Brodsky in washington dc. I'm kind of nervous but also very very excited. Any tips or anything is welcomed, thank you.

    Welcome Max! I know well that feeling of excitement and nervousness. It's a huge change/commitment to make in your life, but one that will eventually give you so much more in life to enjoy.

    Spend some time reading through the posts in the various forums. You'll gain so much knowledge there that you'll feel like a pro by the time you go in for the band.

    Let us hear from you when you get home, and keep us posted on your progress.
