Banded on 6-3-08

It's only been two days. I feel so overwhelmed and questioning my decision. Someone please tell me this is normal at this stage. I would love to chat with anyone. Thanks, Amber

Hi Amber, I am scheduled 5-10-08, dont know what you are going through- am here to listen Thinking of you and praying

Hi Amber, I got my band the day after you. I would say it's very normal. Right now there is a lot to do. I hear that every day gets better. Think about all of the people you talked with that said, "I would do it again in a second." This helps me realize that this stage won't last. We have just had major surgery and need to give ourselves time to recover and get into the swing of things. I know it will get better.

Hi Amber, I was banded on 05/27/08, each day gets better and better. I went back to work today and feel great. Stephanie

Hi Amber, I had the RY Bypass the next day after you. Probably puts us at the same stage. Im sure the post op stuff goes about the same. Liquids only. Had anything good that you could recommend?

Hi Amber I am scheduled for lap band on 7-17. The one thing I know now is that after years of failing at qeight loss, of beating myself up, of being called fat, heavy, big, whatever, of being embarrassed by my looks, I am my number one enemy. We are so hard on ourselves arent we? This is the beginning of a new you, so it isnt going to be easy. but it is going to be worth it. I believe this with all my heart. thin is gonna taste better than anything ive ever eaten!!!
