Hi Martha, I was banded in Greenville NC on Dec 19th by Dr. Chapman. I am pleased thus far with the whole process. I would love to have a NC chat buddy to compare notes with. :thumbup:Good luck!

Okay Hi all, I am awaiting to hear from my surgeon. I have had all the required tests, dietician visits, psychologist's visit etc... how long does it take now. I may not have passed the psychologist test. Am I crazy because I do not keep a food diary?>>>>>>> just kidding. I feel pretty confident and Dr. Chapman from ECU in Greenville North Carolina (anyone been through banding there) said I was a good candidate. :rolleyes2:This is an awesome site and has already helped me so much..... be back soon
