[tinagirl 0]

Hello everyone, well my time has come and i'm scared to death, not about getting the band but if the band will work for me. I've tried so many diets and i'm always hungry. I'm scared that I will fill hungry all the time. My sister is having the band put on also, (the same day) I'm hoping that she will help me through this. Does anyone feel this way?:help:

Hi TinaGirl!

Congrats on your band date! Both you and your sister will be do great. You are both so fortunate to have each other & experience this at the same time - that support is great! The band will work for you guys - it's a tool, you make it work for you. Don't worry about the hunger or anything else, focus on how your quality of life will improve.

I wish the both of you the best of luck!

See ya'll in bandland!

I was very worried about being able to do it also. You will be amazed at how this helps. I say this at only 5 days out...but I can see it is habit changing.

Best of luck! You will do great!

Tina, just about everyone feels that way. See, you are NORMAL. And you will get hungry. And your band will see to it that you don't overeat. But first of all, just heal and follow your doctor's orders.
