Hi

to get a ticker thingo i just clicked on someones ticker which directs you to the site, created one and then you just copy the code and the go to "quick links" and "edit signature" and paste the code there.

Hope that helps you. I am new to all this too!

Hi

I am new here too. My op is on 17 July 2008 so not long to go. Have been looking into this for 12 months so has taken me a while to gather courage in having it done. My biggest thing is worried about not waking up after the surgery (silly I know) but anyway time has come to get it done. I weigh 134 kilos so a fair way to go on my journey.

Good luck on your journey, this site looks awesome.

Welcome ladies.... it is a little bit scarey leading up to the surgery - however, I'm sure like the vast majority of people, you will be thrilled you had this done once you get past the first couple of weeks. Best thing I ever did for myself (so far :->)

Hi all,

Trust me it would be the best thing that you have done. I am looking into it at the moment as my husband got banded on the 17th March and he has lost a lot of weight and his portion sizes have went down as well, so a big saving on the food bills.

Here is the link to get a ticker
