This is the first time I've ever posted on a message board so bear with me. I had my first appointment with the bariatric surgeons office today. I assumed it would be a long process prior to getting the band, however I should be getting it in April. I am on antidepressants and had general surgery 10 years ago and I suffered severe anxiety afterward. I'm worried about going through that again. I was wondering if anyone out there had similar problems and had any suggestions. Thank you

All I can say is it will all be worth it! My whole experience was easier than I ever thought it would be although the first year was a big adjustment...it is truly easy now and my weight never changes no matter what I do...

Thank you so much for your response. It's so nice to hear about how everyone else is doing and their experiences.
