Hi there I am a newbie to this forum, My name is Jan and I am from South Australia. I am off tomorrow the 8th of July for my first initial consult for having the lap band process. I am so excited and hopefully this time next year I will be recording my progress to a long awaited re-birthing of this skinny girl trying desperately to get out of this fat outer body. I would love to hear from anyone about the process from here on in. Cheers bella64:thumbup::thumbup:

I am sorry I have'nt posted for a while now as I have been busy with work and getting fatter LOL !!! I am trying so hard to be positive at this time but I am having trouble I am still waiting for my banding and will have to wait until next year in May, for this is when my insurance matures and i can have the op. I gave up smoking in December 07 and have put on weight since. I just seem to be eat now for the something to do with my hands. Any ideas ladies. Thankyou to Sunwyse and to Lellow for there comments. It would be nice to hear from others and recieve their encouragement. Thankyou to all Jan:sad::w00t:

Good luck Steve I wish you all the best. I cant wait for the Doctor to give me that final date as to wheni will have my surgery. I have never been so excited and yet scared all at once. Let us know how you go on your Journey to the new Steve. bella64

Does anyone have any comforting thoughts to pass onto to me as I am worried about this whole process. I am scared something is going to go wrong??? Can anything????? Maybe I will not meet the criteria !!! Oh no this skinny girl wants to get out of this fat body so badly.....

My name is bella64 and I am very new to this so hopefully I wont make a mess of it. I am in Adelaide Australia and I am just beginning my journey on the way to a new slimmer me. I have had a problem with my weight for many years now and have had all the yoyo weight loss and many gains. I was reffered by my sister inlaw who had her banding done just this past November and wow she looks amazing. So I asked my doc about having it done and he said yes it would be beneficial for me. So I have paid into my medical fund and I am having my first appintment with my specialist on the 8th of July to find out all the do;s and the dont;s. I am so excited the skinny little person inside me wants to get out and be recognised.. yeehaaaa.
