divainmyforties 0 Posted March 13, 2009 I'm a newbie to this site. I will be banded on 3/18/09. I am anxious and a little nervous, but overall excited to get started with this journey:thumbup:. Vlynn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bandpal 7 Posted March 13, 2009 Good luck, vlynn, and welcome to LBT. Anxiety, nervousness and excitement are all legitimate emotions to feel at the outset. Read, make friends, get yourself ready for surgery and prepare for a big change in your life! -Bandpal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seahawks 0 Posted March 13, 2009 Welcome Vlynn! The number one thing that helped me in the beginning was hooking up with other folks on this site that were banded the same month. As time goes by, every bandster hits different speed bumps, experiences victories, etc. Having people who are going through the same time line made a huge difference to me. We all lost weight at different rates (based on age, metabolism, etc), but could relate with each other really well. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
