Hi everyone, I am new to this but here I go.

I am finished with all my test and will have my

surgery on nov 3. I am excited but also nervous. It took me a year to make this decision, last xmas eve I was at the table with

my family and extended family and made the decision, just like that and I never looked back. So here I am 38 days to go and I can't believe it went so fast.:thumbup:

Congrats RCP!!!!!! I am really happy for you!! Let the beginning, begin!

Hi and welcome to LBT! My band date is October 27th and I am getting really excited. I didn't even know about weight loss surgery until 2 years ago and I made up my mind then, but at that time our insurance didn't cover it. SO ~ as of April of 2007 they started to cover gastric banding and here I am! I am looking forward to starting a new life!

Good Luck on your journey!! :thumbup:

Hi everyone,

i was banded sept 4,08 and have no regrets. It was the best thing i ever could have done for myself. As a single mother for so many years, i neglected my needs. Put my kids first. Always my kids first. No regrets for that either because they are both grown and doing very well. I've lost 17 lbs and my clothes are getting loose and the confidence is starting to go through the roof. Yoohoo!!!!!! Good luck all
