Hi all! Just wanted to start a quick thread to introduce myself. I am Marie . I am 23 and have been overweight since I was 14. I didn't really care in high school, but I wish I had.I am going to be banded on the 16th. YAY!! I am really looking forward to it, just started my preop diet today(Atkins). I am a HUGE carb fan so it might be a little harder than I thought. But hubby is super supportive and is also denying himself the goodies that I can't have. Isn't that sweet?

Anyway just wanted to say hi, and that I'm so glad that we have a place to relate to eachother since we are so young. Hope everyone is doing well!!
