Good morning all! In a few hours I will officially be banded. I am starting to get a little nervous now. Not because of the surgery but because of how life is going to to be afterwards. I am ready for the change and know I can do this, just need to keep my spirits up. I am not looking forward to what most of you call "Bandster Hell" but I know if I can get pass that point the ride will be a lot smoother. My surgery is in a few hours, I have only slept about an hour... I am more anxious than anything. I have waited for this for almost a year now, and I can't beleive it's finally time! 08/07/09 is the day that will change my life as I know it, and I am ready for that change! Good luck to all you others out there!!!

Congrats Amanda! Please let us know how you are doing when you feel up to it. Good Luck!
