ebonyeyes replied to eejaydiva's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
Hello all. My name is Ebony and I am new to this thread. I am thinking about getting banded because I am 404 pounds, 28 years old, about to get married, and cannot have kids (due to being overweight). I am hoping that the band will help me conceive before I am 30. I have not set up an doc appointments yet, but I will be attending a seminar for the Realize Band in 2 days! I am very scared and still don't know if I am going to get banded or not. Congrats to everyone who got pregnant and good luck to those who are still trying!!! -
Thinking about getting banded!

Hello Jenny. Thanks for your reply. I am attending a seminar this Thursday in my area. I really have to think long and hard about getting the surgery because I have to make sure that I will be able to handle all that comes with it. I don't want to damage by body more than it has already been damaged but I also want to have kids (my weight is not permitting me too at this time) and a healthy life. -
Hello everyone. My name is Ebony and I am 28 years old. I am 5'6 and I weigh 404 pounds. I have been overweight all of my life and I am tired of carrying all of this extra weight. I am starting to have so many problems because of my extra weight. I am on daily meds for blood pressure and knee pain. My whole body aches daily and I just cannot take it anymore. I am getting married in less than 2 months and my wedding dress barely fits. I am thinking about getting the weight loss surgery but I am very nervous. I know that it is a lifestyle change and I am afraid that I will not be able to handle it. I LOVE TO EAT! I sometimes eat until I am stuffed (which is wrong). I know that there are major problems that can come with the surgery and I am not sure that I want to subject me, my body, or my family to them. I am also scared that I will not be able to control my weight loss. I do not want to be stick thin and I am nervous about getting "too thin" if I get the surgery. Can anyone please give me any advice. All is welcomed and appreciated. Thanks, Ebony
