So here I am....... 39 year old female with 80 pounds to lose. I am scheduled for banding on June 15 and very nervous about it. I've paid so there is no turning back now! I have been reading non stop for over three weeks on this surgery, all the posting and the long and short of it all is the success of the before and after pictures that have settled my nerves.

Wish me luck,

Betty

good luck and congrats!!

where are you being banded??

The more you know about what to expect the better off you and your nerves will be!!! You will be fine and this is a wonderful place for support and information. I will be sending a little prayer your way on the 15th!

Good luck Betty! You're going to do great.

I will be banded by Dr. Mumford in Mississauga, Ontario. Mini Me, I think we are in the same boat weight wise as I was sitting at 208 at my consultation and think I am down about 8 since then and hope to reach 120 but will be happy at 130.

Welcome to the board and good luck with your surgery. My band has been a wonderful tool and I love it!

So when does the hazing begin for the new kid?

Just kidding, welcome to LBT
