Hi all, I was just told I have a date of June 5th! I'm so excited and so scared at the same time. I must have thought about calling everything off about 4 times today!! But the fact is, is that I really need the band. I'm 6 feet tall and weight 381 pounds. I am pre-diabetic and have been under going D & C's every 6 months as well as Progestrone treatment as a means of preventing my pre-uterine cancer from progressing to full cancer. My doctors have told me that everything would improve if I was to just loose the weight. Also too, I really want to have a baby or two. Did any of you go through this wishy washy prior to your surgery?

Hi Joanna and welcome! That is wonderful that you have a date.

I never doubted my decision to get the band. I was so excited at the opportunity to change my life, I just couldn't wait for the day to get here.

Hi Joanna! I think most of us go through some amount of indecision at some point. I know for me, I had to do LOADS of research before I finally made a definite decision and then I was afraid to tell anyone for the longest time (including DH!). This is a major decision and it's only atural to second guess yourself along the way. This site is a great place for information and support, so please utilize those resources as you try to make a decision.

Good luck and let us know what you decide!
