mpennix 0 Posted November 13, 2007 Hello Lapband Friends, My name is Meshia and I will be banded on the 14th. I am excited and a little nervous which I assume is to be expected. I have struggled with being overweight for as long as I can remember. My paternal side of the family are all obese.That is my fear and motivation to get the band. I am a foster mother of two beautiful little girls and I want to be around for them for a long time. Meshia:whoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
