Hope this is the right place to post this. I haven't had a lap band done,YET. I am having my first visit with the nurse next week. I am both excited and nervous. I have been reading about everyones experiences and find them very inspirational. I live on the Gold Coast in Qld Australia. I just wanted to say keep up the good work to all of you who have had it done.:clap2:

Well, it appears I am in the right place! I am almost done with my six month program and will be having the lap band surgery the second week of December. I can't wait to read what you are writing. I am getting a little nervous :(

Hi Trish, you will have your surgery way before me. I don't think I can have it until after Christmas as I have so many things on at the moment. A wedding, a trip to New Zealand and away for Christmas. I just want it now though! You will be able to tell me how it goes.
