Jenea 0 Posted February 20, 2007 Hi, My name is Jenea, 39 years old. I lost 70lbs three years ago on Atkins and weight watchers, but have gained almost all of it back. I have made the decision to find out more about being banded. I would sure like any advice that you all may offer. I am scared of the surgery, but at this point I am so desperate to do something that will be a long term solution. I am an emotional/binge eater which concerns me also because usually I don't stop when I am full or even start because of hunger, only emotions. Advice anyone? Thank you.

Keluliana 0 Posted February 20, 2007 Sounds like you will like the lap band. I am getting banded in April. If you live near enough, go to a seminar held by the hospital that performs the surgery. It was very helpful for me, and very encouraging to see other people going in for it as well and to hear real people who had done it before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
