Hi, All. I have just started my journey to having Lap Band Surgery. At 35 years of struggling with my weight, I have decided that this surgery is a good tool to help fight the battle. I look forward to getting to know and supporting others on their journey as well as developing a support system here. Thanks.

Welcome! I'm glad you found motivation to have the surgery and get healthy. My reason was that I was tired of being overweight and I will be 30 in 14 months. I do NOT want to be clinically obese for my 30th bday.

I am about 4 1/2 weeks post op and this forum has been SO, SO helpful! Good luck on your journey

welcome!~

Welcome! I am new as well. Surgery is Monday. Wish I did it when I was 30. But never too late to get healthy. Best wishes

Welcome to the forum and good luck to all who are having up and coming surgery.

best. decision. ever. ..........................welcome and good luck !!!!

Hi Dollgirl! Great to have you. I was banded 5/8, already feeling healthier. No regrets.

Hi I too just joined and will get banded on the 11 of July. My goal is to be a healthier weight by my 30 bday as well. Best of luck and let's do this...
