Recently Banded

This is new for me. I don't personally know anyone who has this surgery and I'm looking for people to relate to. Has anyone been banded with a staring BMI under 40? My BMI was 37. So if anyone has any questions about that, I'll be happy to answer.

Hey My BMI is a 38 and I am shedualed to be banded on June 2nd... I can't wait, I am so excited and nervous. I am on my 6th day on my 2 wk pre op liquid diet and it SUCKS! LOL. But I know it will be worth it. So are you happy with your decision? Do you work out everyday? And advice you can offer me would be sooo appriciated. Thanks and Congrratulations on your success.

Hi Jalicia, I was banded on Friday and I'm doing good. My starting BMI was 37 as well. I have high blood pressure which made it possible to have it done. Your pix are great. You have really lost a lot and it shows! That is really encouraging. Has it been a steady weight loss and how much did you lose in the 1st week or 2? GB
