Surgery went well....Got banded last Monday 2/18/08....Went back to work today, without any problems. Went to my follow-up, and I was SHOCKED....I've lost 17 lbs.!!!! I am soooo excited!!!!!!!! I know the numbers will not always be that big, or even double digits....but wow!!!! And my energy level is really great!!!

Now....where/how do I get a 'ticker' for these posts? I'm ready! LOL
