Hello Girls,
My name is Angie and I am from Lake Wylie, SC. I am going to Dr Bauman for my Lap-Band procedure. I don't have a surgery date as of yet, but I am working on all the pre-op paper work. I hopefully will be able to have it in May. But I still have to see the nutritionist and psycologist. I just got done with an upper GI and lab work. Then today I have to go to my OB and get 5 years of documentation of my weight. There is no problem's there. I have been over weight for some time now.
This is nice to see others going through the same thing. Hopefully I can get to know you girls and we can set up a good support group. I have a friend that just had it done and he is doing pretty well. He had his surgery and left that same night. Then three days later he was at Carowinds running around with his children. I will send this website to him so he can have some support if he wants. Men are weird about stuff like this! lol He had surgery on the 8th of March and has lost 15lbs. so far.
Please keep posting and let me know how you all are doing with your surgeries so I can see how it goes for you girls. Good luck with everything, don't give up! This is for a healthier, and happier new you! That is how I am looking at it.
