I just want to share my excitement with everyone! I have been wanting the band for 2 years and it's finally happening. I am scheduled May 3rd for surgery and May 4th for a new life. I am so very happy to start my journey.

Good for you! The fun can now begin.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

I am so happy for you. You are so blessed and are about to start the next step on your Weight Loss Journey. I myself have not been banded YET I am trying to win a contest where if I get the most votes or 2nd most votes then I win a FREE lapband!! I would do anything to be in your shoes, because I know the feeling you must have right now. It is a life saving surgery and you will literally get your life back. I think that they should call it the LIFE BAND instead of Lapband cause it gives you back your life!!!

But if you need to talk there is great support on here and I am here to help anyway that I can!!! Keep us updated!

Congratulations

Congratulations, It is such a big step in the right direction of a new life...My journey started Mar 28, 13 (surgery on the 27)...It is going really good...No gas pain like everyone has complained of but I was luck on that...I am starting my mushies and I am glad to be eating some real kind of food...But the hardest part is not to drink after to wash everything down...But its all good....

Down 10 so far....GOOD LUCK...
