Hey all! My name is Elizabeth, you can call me whatever nickname that comes to mind . I'm 26 years old and I'm from Staten Island, NY. I'm in the process right now of getting all my tests done (and there's a ton but worth it) before surgery. As it states in my profile I'm not really good at telling stuff about myself but I'm very open to answering questions. I look forward to getting to know everyone around here and I definitely can't wait to start posting about my progress in my weight loss journey!

*I actually posted this originally in the main introductions but someone told me to head over here.

Welcome! I am 24 and am getting banded Monday. Excited for the journey!

Welcome!! being in your 20's and being banded rocks!! Best wishes :scared2:

Good luck moving through all your tests with speed and no hiccups! Keep in mind that it's all worth it in the end! Keep us updated.

Thanks all! The only one I've done so far is my phsch evaluation and that already was a pain! I have my surgical consultant on Tuesday and then I still have to go to the nutritionist, for my sleep test, cardiologist, stomach sonogram, blood work and the vein doctor (can't remember what its called :scared2:). Hoping to have a surgery date in late April or early May.

Welcome Elizabeth! That's my middle name and I've always favored Beth or Betsy as the nickname for that.

Congrats and good luck on your appointments and such!
