Hey there. I was really moved by your post. I just joined about half an hour ago, and am scheduled to be banded on May 21st. I have not told certain people in my life.. for truly the same reason. People say it's the easy way out, but they don't understand how much you are changing behaviors and habits by going through with the procedure. My entire relationship with food will now change, forever. That is not an easy step to take. Good luck with your surgery, and please keep me posted on how you are doing!
