Hello all. I am a 34 and morbidly obese. I am 226 lbs right now. I am in my pre- op diet phase. My Lapband surgery is on Februaru 17. I am so ready for this tool to be placed in me for my future health and success. I have wanted this surgery for about 7 years now, and now that it almost time for my surgery I can hardly stand the anticipation. I am ready for all of the steps of the journey. I am sure I will have good and bad days, but I am sure that there will be more good than bad. Good luck to all of you, and God bless.

Good Luck...I just got a call from my Dr today that I have been approved..so I can feel your excitment....I will be looking for updates from you !!!

Oh I am so happy for you Dee257. It is the best feeling when you know you are actually going to get the surgery for sure! I can't wait until we can see the results. I will keep you updated. Please do the same for me!

Congratulations! Welcome to Bandster land and a healthier life. I was banded 12/29 and like you couldn't wait for my day to arrive. I was never nervous, apprehesive or scared. Just so excited and ready to do this! I had to have 3-6 months supervised weight loss 42# and 20 since surgery. I feel so much better physically, mentally and emotionally and so will you. Good luck and we're here for you.

Thank you so much Laddie1229. And congratulations on your weight loss so far. I can't wait to be healthy. I am not really scared or apprehensive at all. I have wanted this for so long, and knew that I really needed this to be successful at my goals. I appreciate the support, and hope to hear from you again. Good luck on your journey!
