Hi Welcome to my blog. I have been thinking about doing the banding for a long time and never has it been the right time. Finally my hubby and have made the decsion that we both want to do it as soon as possible. We are both morbidly obese. My husband health has been greatly effected. He has been in the hospital so many times with cellulitis that the dr said if he lost the weight would not be such an issue. My health is effected in the way that I can't get pg since my dr said it would be too risky for me and my future child. So while I am going to be celeberating my 7th aniversary soon I am hoping that I will loose the weight soon so that i can finally have that child I have been dreaming about. I know that this is no miracle and that we getting unto something that is a lot of work but I am ready for it. I have been a very overweight child and teen and I am ready to loose it and to take control of my weight. I have a goal to look forward too and I can;t wait till I get there. Anyways that is it for now if anyone has questions or comments please feel free to post them and I hope that I will answer them as soon as I can. Sim78
