Hi everyone well my surgery day is getting closer. August 26th, I can't wait. My sister has decided that she wants the band also so she is going to have it done the same time I do. She was going with me anyways to be my support, now we will be doing this together. I think it's really cool. My other sister just thinks we are crazy, and our mom thinks we are just putting a band aid on our weight problem, and we should just see a counseler to get to the real reason why we are over weight. This is the reason I wasn't even going to tell my mom or sister, but I let people talk me into it. Anyways sorry for going on I can't wait for Aug 26th and to also prove my mom and other sister wrong.

Congrats! And I think it is wonderful you will have a family "band buddy" to start your journey with! Good luck to you both!
