Hell-o From The Great NW!!

Only 7 days to go before being banded and I feel like a new journey of my life is about to begin-Can't Wait!. I have struggled with diets and weight loss waaaay to long, and waisted a lot of good years, Not anymore...My band day is Aug 12th and if I can get through this pre-op diet I can tackle anything. I now see my daughter experiencing the same thing as myself at 20 years of age, so she has decided to also be banded at the same time. After much research and discussion with others who have had a similar experience, we opted for surgery in Mexico.They have wonderful facilities and caring staff-and it's affordable! So off we go..we'll let you know how it goes in case others are nervous about traveling out of the country.Wish us luck! :smile:

Congratulations, CeeLee! It's great to go through this with another family member--you can have your own mini support group.

Hello and welcome to LBT :smile: That's good that you and your daughter are getting banded together... that will be nice to always have a support person that knows what you're going through.

I wish you both the best and a very speedy recovery :wub:
