Hi!

Just found this site and especially hoping to hear from banders in Central VA. Would love the procedure and am just beginning my research. I'm scared, ashamed, nervous, short on funds, roller coaster of emotions...maybe you know the story. Would love to hear from you! Take care!!! sami

Hi Sami, and welcome to LBT! There is nothing to be ashamed of here, remember, we are all in or were in the same place as you are now. We are here to offer support and help to one another. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. You will find we are all more than willing to help in any way we can.

Keep us posted on your progress.

WELCOME! What I noticed when I first came here about a year ago is that anything I have gone through, so have many people on this site. I learned I am not alone but actually the opposite. You've come to the right place.

Welcome Sami

Gosh, I think we have ALL been there! but for me I just battled through and I have never regretted the decision I made to have lapband surgery...it has been challenging at times...working through my own mind barriers has been the hardest thing. but slowly but surely I am breaking through. This is a great place for info, advise even just a supportive clap or pat on the back so you have come to the right place...I am looking forward to keeping updated on your progress...so dont be a stranger now! you are 'home' here.
