Band date 3/18/14

Hi, I'm new and my surgery is scheduled for next Tues. I'm getting very nervous but have done a lot of research and preparation for this. I started thinking about this last November when I turned 46 and realized I had been struggling with my weight for 25 years with diet and exercise and it was time to do something different. I'm pretty sure I've made the right decision because I have 125 lbs to lose. Very nervous though!

Being nervous is normal for anyone. So many fears from past dieting attempts can sabotage many plans. Good luck and check in when you're back from surgery. I'm sure you'll have questions?

Hello

Follow the plan....One day at a time...and it does work.....remember the band is a tool. 2 weeks preop and 2-3 weeks after gets your mind prepared for the rest of your life. There are a lot of emotions. ..head hunger and second guessing...but keep your eye on the end result. It's not gonna be easy but very obtainable. More and more energy every day as the weight comes off. Lots of changes are in our future and change is good.

Good luck on this awesome journey

Thank you for all of the encouraging responses! I am looking forward to some positive changes and counting down the days. Can't believe my surgery is down to 1 week away!
