Hi, I had my band put in June 8th, the going has been slow and a lot of work!!! I have lost about 40 lbs. I had my surgery done at DePaul by Dr. Wagner. I would love to have some support close by!!

Hi, I am a 34 year old breast cancer survivor from IL. I have fought my weight the majority of my adult life. In 2008 I was diagnosed with breast cancer, specifically medullary carcinoma of the breast. I had 2 lumpectomies, 1 lymphocentisis, 12 rounds of chemo, 33 radiation treatments, a complete hyaterectomy & oopherectomy, another biopsy, and 1 more lumpectomy on the other breast that came back with b9 results. Oh yeah and I have fibromyalga, All of this and I am fatter than ever!!! Maintaining a normal body weight will greatly reduce my risk of reoccurence but I can't seem to loose wt. on my own. I am having surgery on Weds. I am starving, weak, shaky, and achy from the liquid diet. How on earth am I going to make it 3 more days??? Any suggestions??
