Thx to everyone for your kind words! I feel very emotional, stressed and after reading some threads am scared of what is yet to come! I am determined to eat well and exercise but I don't want to encounter more medical difficulties while trying to lose weight to stop future medical issues!!!! Arggghh

I got banded 7 days ago also! Im just taking it day by day but would love a lap band buddy!
