Hello everyone! My name is LaToya and I am new to these forums.

I am currently in the process of getting the gastric band, I have my 1st appointment with my surgeon tomorrow.

I am both nervous and excited.

I am mainly interested in meeting with the Dietitian because I am a very picky eater and want to make sure that I will be sucessful.

If you want to reply---please feel free to do so and add your stats soI can see how sucessful you have been.

Date of Surger, Begining Weight and Current Weight.

Can't wait to hear from everyone!

LaToya, I am also new, had my surgery in Florida September 9, no problems. Starting weight 215, today 203, Friday i will be one week. Some of the weight loss his from the preop diet. I feel great had some pain mostly my shoulder first few days but now i'm good. So excited to begin this journey, i was nervous also, but my dr is the best and he was there all the way. There will be sacrafices, but they are ones that i am willing to make. I am 53 years old, and i feel like i am just starting a new life! I will be here for what ever you need, it is great to have support through such important decisions that we make with our lives. Way to go and you are never alone!
