Hi Lance! My advice is to read everything you can. I got pseudo obsessive about reading everything here before I had my surgery.

Hello from California and welcome to this great forum. Many stories,experiences and a wealth of knowledge is on this forum. Try to read as many topics as you can. You will get more personal one-in-one experiences than talking with your surgeon. Your journey begins by you becoming members of this forum

My band date is Aug 6, and I'm ready and very positive that this is a God sent procedure that I want to accept.

Best wishes to all...
