Joe, Good for you! I am happy you are doing so well. My maiden name is Murphy which pretty much sums it up, if something can go wrong it does! I am optimistic that in the long run I will make it through and that this was still the right thing to do. Yes I have lost 20 pounds already. I followed the pre-op diet and the pounds just fell off. I had told one of my friends if I could just stick to the pre-op diet I wouldn't need the surgery LOL. Keeping it off would have been another story though. Glad to see you joined the forum. There is a wealth of information out there and so much encouragement from lots of people going through the same thing as you. I wish you continued success with your band. Good Luck! Tell Dee Hello.
