Hi,

I am 32 yrs old, thinking of having lap band after I get out of nursing school. I have a 2 yr old son, and a wonderful supportive husband. I have a BMI of 45, and am sick to death of being obese. I want to live!:biggrin2:

Hello!!! :thumbdown: Welcome to LBT!! I understand you wanting to live completely. I'm 22 and I have never really lived...have a BMI of 60. I hope you can start your journey soon! Hope to hear from you again when you find out more information or have questions/thoughts.:smile:

Hi and welcome to LBT! How much longer do you have in school?

I remember being in that stage of the banding process , when it was just a thought. I am just here to tell you how wonderful it is... I was so nervous to do it and even had a hard time to believe it would work for me since nothing had ever been sucessful. You can do it !!!! You should check into it asap because there is alot of work to do before you can get the surgery.. meetings and appointments to complete the required things. That way you can learn as you go to see if it is right for you. Just know that you can do it if you put your mind to it !
