Hi, I'm Mitch from Phoenix, Az. I am a mother of 4, grandma of 7 and I will be 60 this year. I am really tired of yo yoing as far as weight goes and will be banded by Dr Nirmul on 1/4/08. I am nervous, but excited. Am looking forward to loosing my weight for good and not just the same 20 pounds over and over. I wonder how many lbs I have really lost over the yrs? Mitch:nervous
