Just had my surger 4-2-12. Very informative information I have gotten so far. Looking forward to chating with all of you.

Congrats on your surgery Sissy. I was banded 7/7/11 and have been very happy so far. I am down 91 pounds and feeling real good. Easter as a bit rough (I love jelly Beans and marshmellow bunnies) so I have now purged my office and house of that good stuff and am back in the saddle. I get "head hungry" and "cravings" so I have a real battle but I only have 40 pounds more to go...Don't get discouraged and when you do, visit the site - in fact - come back here often,,,it really helps to know you are not alone no matter what you did or feel. Hope your recovery is going well and good luck with your new journey...
