Hello Everyone,

Glad to have found this site! I am been pursing the lapband since November 2006. I should have my surgery date within two weeks. I feel I have jumped through a lot of hurdles to get here. I guess it was worth the wait, the surgeon I have told me that just last week he was authorized to use a "new lapband" that produces even greater weightloss results. I guess he is just one of six surgeons in the US able to use it. So I am happy about that.:clap2:

I look forward to hearing all your stories and enjoying the challenges and triumphs of the lapband.

Welcome! Do you have a surgery date yet?

I just got my date yesterday. It will be on July 20th. I will have to go on a five day fast before the surgery and then I plan on taking some time off. I really want to devote my time to encorporating new habits into my new life style.
