Dontondan Posted July 7, 2008 Report Posted July 7, 2008 Welcome to the forum! I don't know about words of wisdom, but I love my band and think it was the most life-changing thing I have ever done for myself. It isn't always easy, but overall it has been a Godsend. You do have to follow the rules of the band in order for it to work for you, but it is a fabulous tool.
Kittycat Posted July 7, 2008 Report Posted July 7, 2008 Welcome!! Are you having surgery in the UK or at the OCC? I had mine here in Ontario, Canada. My advice would be to view the band as a weight loss tool. It's not a magic wand that will instantly make the weight fall off. You need to follow the guidelines of your surgeon, eat healthy, exercise and avoid the foods and drinks as instructed. It's a complete lifestyle change and if you are ready to make that committment to do it, you will do great! Congratulations on making this life changing decision, best of luck! Cathy
nicolek Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Hi Where in the Uk are you from? Are you still there or in USA or Canada? You will love the band. Nicolek
