I am not banded yet, I have all the paper work completed and meetings completed. My mindset is good, I do enjoy looking thru all the postings, sure does help. One of my biggest fears was logging on here and actually writing something. Phew, I did it, I only hope I did it right. I am in the prosess of loosing the initial 10lbs, I have lost 4-5 depends on the day. A bit nervous, My friend had the bypass surgery in march and she is doing great. I so want to be loosing too!

We are going out in a bit do buy diet supplies. . .lol. We will have our weigh in on friday so I know we will need to loose 10# from that point. I know we have to do 3 meetings after that. I hope it doesn't take forever to get a surgery date I am all ramped up to get going. Guess I will see you in August. =):tt2:

Don't start your diet until after you weigh in on friday. They will take your highest weigt and measure from then. So enjoy your week. The best advice I could give you is get all the paper work in, all your test completed.. the meetings are very helpful, and you really do need the time to mull all the pros and cons.... take care!!
