I have been over weight since i had my son in 1995,and now am having a number o f medical problems due to the excess weight.So my doctor reffered me three yrs a go and i went back and forth with wether i want it or not.I also watched my sister in law go thrue the gastric bypass and knew i didnt want to go that far.So i decided on the lapband it is the least invasive and as i say i will still be thick...lol...Thats just a lil joke of mine.Well i finaly decided to do it and now is the time for me.So i went thrue the nine month process at saranac medical center and i have my surgery date and i am excited and nervouse.We will see how it goes. So i had my band placed 3-9-10 and this is what i have been waiting for.Now i cant wait to get the help from the band that i need and loose weight....but....my worry now is that my boobs are gonna shrink...lol...i know that may sound petty but i like my boobs and so does my hubby...lol...Well on a more seriouse note wish me luck on my journey,and i will definitly keep yall informed.;)
