Hi, I am Andrew pleased to meet you all. Have been reading the posts on here and I have to say they are extremely helpful and I thinks so great with the way you'll being so open and free with the information.

I have been thinking about getting Banding done for the last few years and have finally built up the nerve to get it done. I am having my op on the 2Nd of March. I am looking forward to the end result in helping me too loose the weight but not the operation but then again I don't think you would be human if you weren't worried about the op.

Anyway today I started optifast I wanted to give myself an extra two weeks head start on it.

Congrats on the decision, Andrew and welcome. The first few days of opti are the worst. I am day five now and feel really good :)
