Not banded yet. Still working on it. Trying to get more info on it to make sure this is the right way to go. Everyone here sounds so positive about their decision. Congratulations to you all. If anyone reads this I would truly like to know before I have the surgery if you wish that you would have taken another route--and if so, which one? I guess I really have the heebie-jeebies.

I have no regrets at all. I woke up hungry yesterday and it hit me that I haven't felt the sensation of a hunger pang in months. Truly great. I was talking to my sister-in-law about her latest diet and all I could think about was how great it felt to not have to count points or eat pre-packaged foods. Good luck with your decision - I know it's a hard one.

Hi Everybody, So glad to hear from you all. Really appreciate the input. I think I have made up my mind and it looks like maybe Feb 17 for me. I will be meeting the doctor in 10 days for my consultation. If all goes well, it's Feb. Happy Valentines day to me. lol p.s. I've decided on Toronto, much easier than Mexico!
