Hi,

This is a cool site I just hope I can figure it out!

I want to have the band. I met with the Dr. today. It is exciting to here I'm a good candidate,but sad also.

I think I'm ready. I just look at every meal now as one of my last!

I look forward to this web site and all the info on it.

Have a great night.

Dianne

Hi Diane & Welcome to LBT

Glad you are here, this is a very informative site. I'm sure all of your questions will be answered here

I just look at every meal now as one of my last!

Not to worry about that with the band, thats the great thing about the band, you can lose weight and still enjoy food! ( you just wont be eating as much

Hey Sunset...HERE'S your intro! Sorry I missed it...so glad to have you! I hope you will be able to make the get-together being planned on the NC Forum...you will surely find out the real scoop there! I have been banded for almost 3 months and by the time we gather, I will have had my first fill. I'll tell you everything I know!! It's a quick trip up 485 to Concord, so I'll be looking forward to meeting you. Hope you can come!!

Welcome to LBT!!!

Welcome Dianne!

Don't worry we all felt that way I think! I still eat everything I did before banding, I just gave up bread, etc. because of the extra calories. It really is worth giving up a few things to lose the weight!

Thanks for your replies.

Can you explain to me what everyone is talking about when they say slime and PB? Is there dumping?

I had my endoscopy yesterday! I'm getting closer! I just need that report and a few others and then it's off to the insurance company!
