I didn't realize this was a 20-something thread, but I thought I would post anyway. I was banded 3/25/08 at age 63.

I only wish I did this in my twenties (sigh).

Raised two daughters, celebrated and paid for weddings, nursed my husband during chemo...

I am 52 will be banded on THURSDAY.. I stared at the brochure for 5 years.. and then tuned out everyone saying, you don't need to do this...

YES I DO.. It is MY time now.

I am 41, I had my band done 10 weeks ago back in Oct. lost 46lbs already! Almost 60 lbs if you include the 3 week preop diet. I am very glad to see so many people doing this in their 20's I would not hesitate to tell someone to do it. :thumbup:
