Hello from MI

Hello! My name is Jessica and I have been reading posts on here for a few months now and this is my first post! I have found everyone’s stories to be very helpful and encouraging. I found out yesterday that I was approved for surgery and couldn’t be more excited! I don’t know when the surgery is going to be yet though-waiting on a call from my surgeons office. I look forward to chatting with anyone and being able to share my stories!

Congrats! I just found out this afternoon that I was on my way, too! I just starting posting today and I think it's going to be incredibly helpful. Just getting suggestions and hearing others speak about their experiences is very helpful to me. It gives me an idea as to what I can possibly expect. Good luck to you in everything!!!

Congrats to you too! It is very helpful hearing what can be expected. I don't know anyone who has the lap band surgery done so it's nice to have a place where you ask questions and get helpful info! Good luck to you also!
