redins 0 Posted August 6, 2008 So as of yesterday I am officially a bandster. I am having a lot of back and shoulder pain (due to the gas used while preforming laproscopically,spelling?). I ended having to stay in the hospital because they had to do a major hietal hernia repair. Needless to say I am now starting to feel the pain. I look forward to the journey and the challenges I will face. But most of all I look forward to being healthy and enjoying life!!! I will admit that although I am excited, I am also wondering what the heck I was thinking. But hey this is where I am at and this is for me darn-it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dperson 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Hope to be there also. Just found out i almost didnt pass psych eval because of depression. Heck yeah i'm depressed. I am in constant pain from 2 failed ankle surgeries. Arthritis has taken over my body (feet,hips,knees and now hands). I am only 48 yrs old on saturday but fill 88. Help!!!!!!! I know with all my heart the pain will ease up if i can lose about 80lbs. Sooooo heck yeah i'm depressed. Can you blame me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
