Another golden oldie here too. Would do it again in a heartbeat!!

Thanks for your words of support.

Hi, I'm a fifty eight year old grandma just banded July 11 and all is going well. Can't wait to start soft food. Hang in there I think you'll love it.

Hi, BigFish. I'm glad your making such a great decision. Once your healed up your going to ask yourself why you didn't do this sooner! I'm 33 and tuesday is my 1 week post opt appointment and I'm wondering why I didn't do this sooner.
