Hello from South Carolina

[Littleman 0]

I am known on the forum as Littleman and I am from Irmo, SC. I am in the first steps of getting ready to have my Lap-Band operation. I will welcome any advice you could give because this is new to me. Please, no horror stories, Thanks.

Welcome Littleman! It's nice to have you join us at LBT! For me, being banded was the best decision I have made! It has given me a whole new life. Has it been work, heck yeah. Is it always easy, nope. But it is well worth it! There are a lot of people here and we all have our personal experiences with the band but the majority are going to tell you that they don't regret it. My advice, go into this with all the knowledge you can possibly get. LBT is a wealth of information so read, read, read. Also, expect it to be work. The band is just a tool and you have to be committed to making it work. As far as I'm concerned, most people who are going to take this step to get the weight off, are committed people. Keep a positive but realistic attitude and you will do great! Best of luck to you and keep us posted on how things are going!

Hi Irmo, I'm in Elgin - used to live in Irmo in New Friarsgate for about 3 years but that was 8 years ago! Too busy in Irmo for my taste but the NE Cola is getting the same way!!

Where are you at in your journey and which doctor are you going to use....
