Brockbabe82 0 Posted January 3, 2009 just wanted to send you some good vibes. Stay positive and have people to rely on during recovery. Also bring a pillow to the hospital for the ride home. The bumps are the worst. good luck hun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A.P. Reeves 0 Posted January 3, 2009 Congrats, you will not be sorry. I was so nervous I almost backed out the weekend prior to my surgery and I am so thankful I didn't. I was banded on Sept. 15th 08 and I weighed 434lbs at time of surgery and I am now at 325lbs. I still have a lot of work ahead of me but I will get there and you will to. Don't give up and don't get discouraged. I wish you all the best. Also don't sell yourself short if you think someone don't want you because of your size then that person is not worth being with. When you find the right person for you it don't matter about your size, shape, clor or anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
