Really excited, I had my consultation yesterday which was great and I have booked my op for 31st August!! I am excited but scared at the same time! If anyone has any pearls of wisdom to share I am all ears!! I can't wait, it shall be the start of a new me!!

good luck with your band. im excited for you. i am almost at my goal weight . i had the band over a year ago and lost a bit over 100lbs. you will be losing soon. it is the best feeling to finally have something work. ive had a few challenges with acid reflux but other than that , it really has been an easy journey. i wish you the best. get lots of rest and dont rush. heal first. the weight will come off. some times i drop a lot and then dont lose for a while and then all of a sudden ive dropped more. my band has a mind of its own. i can t eat in the morning. coffee only. has to slowly open up as day goes on. but everyone is different. let us know how you do.
