It's hard to answer everyone individually, but it's so nice to see so many of you that have extended well wishes to me. I started looking at the message boards last year about October, I have learned so much from everyone....I think it has helped me to realize there are so many of us out there in the same situation, it's easy to feel alone when your about to have a surgery like this. I have not felt that way with all of you out there! It's been fun to read the posts from those that are so knowledgeable that are further down the road than I am. I've seen my husband's results and I have seen his aftercare be more than we expected. With pre-op and post-op classes, it would be hard for us to not know what's ahead, I'm really comfortable with my choice of lap-band. The lap-band board has been a huge source of information. I'm amazed at the different approaches to the post-op diet from so many of the doctors. I guess because it's still pretty new they are still experimenting with some of it. Our surgery center is rated a Center of Excellence so a lot of what I see on the lap-band board is not part of our program. I have discovered some of the other boards available to us and will probably be checking them out after surgery this week, but I wanted to thank everyone again for all their encouraging words, prayers and thoughts.
