Just thought I`d drop in to say hello, I live in Scotland and have a pre-op appt this week and I`m terrified.

I`m looking forward to sharing information and making friends and giving and getting support.

hi & welcome, im from the UK too..

im 5 week post op & its the best thing i have ever done to help with my weight.... why are you terrified of the pre-op ? . They will weigh you, ask you lots of questions, talk about the procedure etc etc..

do you have a lot of weight to lose ? are you self pay?..

im sure everything will be alright for you.. keep in touch

Hi there Scotland. I've always wanted to visit. My grandfather was from Glasglow. Maybe some day I will. Don't be worried I am almost a year out and have lost close to 60 pound. It is well worth it. You still have to work at it but it's alot easier to stay on a program with the band than without it. I know I would have gone back to my old habits if it weren't for the band it keeps me in check. good luck ( I'm in The Los angeles area)

Hi Im from Scotland to but live in Houston, I am doing my band evaluation tommorow and hope to have surgery soon. Im Aberdonian Born & Bred!! Im sure you have nothing to fear!
