hey guys happy to know more Arpril banders and have people to share with just had my band on April 13 and still recovering at home.

Congrat on your weight lost u r doing great!m

This is guys am going to do the lap band on April 13,09 for a new start. Did anyone have a change of heart just before the date?:crying:

Hello everyone my name is Taina a wife and mother of three. I have been over weight all my life yo-yoing. Three years ago I reached my big scale at 270 something. I felt so hurt that I got this big. I got on a diet, home made and worked out and some how lost 100lbs. I was so proud of myself. Now am not so proud. Half is back and I feel like I have failed. I decided enough! so I want to get lap band this year. I went to most of my pre-op follow ups and my surgery is set for April 13, 2009. I am new to all these blogs and Vblogs. So bear with me. Anyway if you would like to see some of my vblogs you may. I would love as much support as possible. I have some on Youtube wls forum under Taina009. Soon I hope to add a face to this group. I would love to support anyone who needs me also. So may we be blessed on our journeys to a new start in life.

OMG April 13,09

am sure you will do well yes I too have gotten a few things hope I have evrything I need.

Thanks everyone for your reply. It lets me know that this is normal and my days are getting closer so there is no turning back now. Am scared of the surgery but more scare of my fatness lol.

Hey guys I have to say first that am sure both bands are good choices and have the same results. I did go for the Realize Band because of the way they place the band the band goes around and then stiched in place has a reputation of less band slip. Also the port is smaller easier to get to for fills per some pros. My doctor did not lean to one or other. My surgery is April 13,09 so we will see. Good luck to everyone with any band they choose.

Hang in there girl am sure it will get better

Hang in there girls. I have to keep my faith lol am going in for the banding on April 13 2009 thats three weeks

thank you so much I will also be here for you every bit of the way. I am also afraid but I am going to do girl. lol
