Inspiration

I am being banded 9/25 and will admit to being excited/nervous/scared all at once. When I feel a little nervous I will read the threads on the message boards I visit and look at the before and after pics....what inspiration I get!!

I know that everyone's lap experience is very different. I know some lose easier and for some it's a battle to find the "sweet spot". But looking at these pics I am blown away! I will see some awesome transformation and see that that person was banded in January, that's only 9 months to look like a totally different person! And I am sure feel totally different too! I am just in awe of it all and I can't wait to add my pics to that thread!

My DH and I went to the informational seminar about the band and one of my doc's former patients was there to share her story with us. I told my DH when we left, as I was crying in the car, that I want to be that person that shares their success to motivate others. I want to help others by sharing my struggles. That is so motivating to me!
