Hi Cass, welcome to LBT. I can support what Lee has told you. Keep reading. There are many threads on all those subjects and you can always ask questions in them. All the best.

Welcome Cass, this site has always been a great support for me. You will find a nice mix of people. Remember tho, as my Grandmother told me. Anything worth doing, do it to the very best you can do it. And the results will follow. Some people will eat pizza a few days out of banding and not understand why the weight doesn't drop off. Some will stay on liquids for a few weeks until they heal. Everyone has a different road to walk. Find your commitment level, reason, and support system and do your own research before you do anything life impacting. And you should not have regrets. :)
