Thanks for that Janet....went to go see the anthestist (not sure if I spelled that right or not...lol) today for my surgery on the 11th. I am filled with all the same feelings you that you were when you had your surgery. Thanks to you jotting down those feelings I am feeling more sure that it is the right thing to do (even though I already knew this in my head)...thanks for that and stay strong!! Sandi xxx

Happy Bandiversary!! Thank you for sharing those personal feelings that many of feel but sometimes have a hard time putting into words. For me it was like living on the sidelines of MY life, watching it pass me without being able to enjoy it and join in and have fun!! I kept thinking I can lose weight with this diet or that diet and my goal and motto was "Be fit before 40" when that birthday came and passed with minimal change I decided to look into alternatives which led me to the lapband - though I am just in the beginning phases of my journey I feel it is the best decision and no more watching life pass me by I will be 42 next month and I am on my way to being Fit and Fabulous and Fortyish...

Congratulations! I am so glad that your life is working out the way you want it to. It is really awesome the power we do actually hold. God Bless you and keep you safe through your journey!

Happy Bandaversary, Janet! I'm so happy for you, proud of you and inspired by you.

I wish you all the best life has to offer.............
