Banding tomorrow on 62nd Birthday

Hi there. I'm a newbie but have been lurking for several months. This site has been a blessing, even tho I had to learn to take positive and leave the negative. I've heard a lot of people say their surgery is like a new birth. My surgery was supposed to be on March 10th, but was postponed until March 24th. I was a little disappointed but soon became excited that I can finally start celebrating my birthday again. My original weight was 237, and after preop diet I've lost over 20 lbs. :rolleyes2: I am excited, and after I recover abit in a day or two I will return with more of my story. Again, I thank everyone and wish everyone good luck.

Good luck on your journey.

Like many others I wished I would of had the surgery allot sooner. Yet at the same time I had to wait until I was actually ready to commit to change in Life Style.

While the journey has been far from easy it is a path worth traveling.

Thanks everyone for all your support. I've had so many surgerys that I'm not really worried about tomorrow.I've had a complete hysterectomy, gall bladder removed, breast cancer, and 18 inches of my colon removed. What I'm worried about is succeeding in my journey after all these years of yo-yoing.

Good luck to you that will be banded soon also. I'd love to stay in touch.
