New Beginning

[wlcjprice 0]

Hi,

I'm new here today. I was banded October 4th (2 1/2 weeks ago). Still learning, but very excited to reach my goal some day and hopefully soon. It took 4 years for my doctor to hear me and he finally gave me the go ahead back in February.

I'm 45. Have 3 grand kids and another on the way. My family has been very supportive of me doing this. I'm hoping that being here I can learn from others as I go through this journey and beyond.

Congratulations! How are you feeling? Are you just getting off full liquids at this point? Definitely stick around on these boards. When I am posting and supporting others (and getting support from others here) I do so great. I left for awhile and fell off the horse. Now I'm back to stay! LBT is a great tool to keep you accountable. Congrats on your successful surgery!

Hey, welcome to the journey!!!! I too was banded on Oct 4th. I have found this site to have great info and many supportive people!!! The first week was super hard but as I turn my thoughts away from the foods that I'm missing and on to The BIG PRIZE (a healthy me) I find that it's getting just a bit easier every day!!!

Good luck to you and hopefully we can check in on each others progress :wink2:
