I just turned 54 and I am getting banded on 6/16/11. Like you, I am nervous and scared, but so very excited to get back into a healthier life style than I have been living. Today I go in for my pre-op surgical meeting and diet. I think the other part is that I worry about failure. I have yo yo dieted for 10 years and now I am at a point that I need to lose 50 lbs instead of that 10 - 20 lbs. Good luck to you! You are obviously not in this alone.
