:nervous hello everyone! I just found this board. I am getting banded in 12 days and I am getting really nervous. I want to get to know everyone because I am sure I will need all the support I can get. I have read a lot of posts, and like a lot of other people, I am not as worried about the pain as I am about going 4 weeks on a liquid diet. I know I am going to really want to eat. Why else would I need a lap band if I didn't love to eat, right?!

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself and I hope to get to know people. It will be great to have a place to come where people understand how I feel!

Denise,

Go to your signature and you will be able to enter the information.

This is really great to know I will have someone to go through this with. yes, it will be wonderful to shop in the regular clothes section!

It's great that so many of us are getting started right about the same time.

It will be really helpful to have others going through the same kinds of things. I know it won't be easy at first, but finding this board will make it much more manageable.

Best of luck! I am getting banded on friday, and getting nervous.:omg:

Rosierdays-Maybe we should start a group- we could call it "The end of December" or something equally as corny(smile).

Susie-congratulations and welcome. Keep us informed on your progress ok?

Hello!

I am wondering how all of you are doing all that cool stuff. I don't even know how to post my signiture. I don't know how you're doing that ticker either with the weight loss. I need my daughter to come over and show me, I guess. I can't see anywhere to go and make those things.

Getting my band now in 5 days!
