CotonDeTulear 4 Posted July 15, 2013 FYI: "The BIG Book on Lap-Bands" was really helpful! It explained all aspects in great detail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cwalband 215 Posted July 15, 2013 That is great! I'm in TX but in the Dallas area and my surgery is the 22nd! I bet everything will go wonderfully and I can't wait to hear how you are doing after surgery! Keep us updated! Also, I've been meaning to get The Big Book on Lap-Band keep hearing wonderful things about it! Once again, Best wishes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iwilldothis2 12 Posted July 15, 2013 Congratulations, Newbie! I had my surgery 4 days ago on the 12th. Like you, I am so anxious for my new life, new body, new accomplishments, new pride in myself. So far I have lost 7 lbs. I have been so educated and impressed with the bandsters that gather together here to support each other. I have learned so much already. I am particularly impressed with a few people that have lost large amounts of weight and continue to be here to support all the new people instead of moving ahead and not checking back in. Their mentoring is totally impressive and appreciated. Good luck tomorrow. I hope we can be friends and support each other as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
