thank you so much jachut. so overall the surgery is worth it? and Cherie that's awesome!! congrats... im so nervous for some reason lol. If you dont mind me asking, how much did you weigh before surgery?

Ànd congrats cherie! How are u healing? And have u had any restriction at all?

Congrats on being able to say u can try on a bikini lol so its a definite that ill have excess skin?

Did they your sisters have a problem with excess skin or no?

I am going to be banned on September 13th!! (in NY) im so excited but i am also nervous. I am only 18 years old and keep thinking of small "what ifs" too. I am mainly concerned about excess skin.. Is anyone else worried about that? I am also concerned on the fills. I have read that some people are not successful after their first fill.. and some people arent successful until their first fill. I dont know, maybe thats just some people. I start my liquid diet on August 30th, i am kind of nervous for that too.

thank you so much and congrats on almost reaching your goal!!

I am 18 years old and will be getting the lap band surgery on september 13th,2011! it has been a year since i started this process. I am new to this site so I would love to hear your stories and such. I weight 305 and plan on reaching 125. I know it is a big goal but I am determined. I am concerned about the fills. How do they work? What determines when you need a fill? I have to do a liquid diet starting august 30th. Any helpful ideas for that?

Thank you so much for the tips! I appreciate it greatly. When did you have your surgery? And how is it going for you?
