Leila 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Welcome to Lap Band Talk! There is a lot of great support and info to be found here on the board. I would check out the different FAQ sections first if you haven't allready - bottom item on the list of General Lap Band Discussion Forums. Also if there is something specific you are interested in, make use of the search feature to find threads about that topic in the past. A lot of people get very nervous pre-band, it's only natural. Congratulations on working towards getting banded! You're going to do great!!! :welcomeB: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mousecrazy 2 Posted September 6, 2006 Welcome! Read up on everything you can, and don't linger too long in the complications, although it is good to know about them. Spend more time in the Before and After Pictures, and the Bandiversary posts! Far and away, more people are happy with their bands than have problems with them! Good luck!
