Hi, I am Jeanette, I live in the Oklahoma panhandle. I am an Australian who met my husband online, and we've been happily married for 5 years now. We own the 8 screen movie theatre in town, which keeps us really busy! I have been researching the band since December and then joined the Oklabandsters board in January. I have received invaluable help there, and I am sure I will here as well. Thanks Alex, for doing this! I am scheduled for surgery on August 5th, so only two weeks away now! I am going to be banded by Dr Sanchez in Monterrey, Mexico. I am actually more worried about the flying down there and organising things at work before I leave, than I am about the surgery! After being overweight my entire 43 years (or so it seems) I am sick and tired of being sick and tired, you know how it goes, and so looking forward to 'being a loser'!
