  3. Getting my hell band out in July and converting to MGB with Dr Cobourn in TO.
  4. Hi there; I am contemplating having my band removed. Does anyone have mid thoracic back pain? I am convinced that the band has something to do with it.. Am I crazy?? lol
  5. I am interested in getting my band removed.. Can you tell me what surgeon you had?? Thanks!
  6. I need to be on sugar lockdown too.. :frown: I really want to get something going.. Let's make a plan!
  7. There's no fill Dr's in Barrie, but Slimband is doing Markham fills now, I find that much easier :frown:
  8. I think we should try and set up a butter tart date:drool:
  9. I paid 18,000 out of pocket, no insurance.
  10. Hi I am having trouble finding a band-friendly trainer in my area :tongue_smilie: The first one I spoke with is a newbie (also a relative) and he did some "research" with his mentor and trainer. His response was "Lap-Banders never exercise, so there is no data" Second one I went to at our local YMCA was asking me questions and when I mentioned I had a lap-band, her response was "how soon can you get it out??" I cut her off right there. Anyone else have a hard time with this? I know my limitations and will stop if I am tired. I'd love to hear some tips Thanks!
  11. I have 4 year old twins, I wish I could still be in bed at that time :thumbup: We are going to make a day of it and go to the ROM after.
  12. It's 10:30 - 11:30 am :wink2:
  13. Anyone attending the support group at TLBC this Saturday? I am booked for it and a fill..
  14. I paid $18,000 total in Toronto.
  15. I was on demerol and that made me throw up after surgery... not pleasant. I moved to baby tylenol and was much better :wink2:
  16. Same surgeon, same spot
  17. I still have that from my c-section scar and my twins are almost 5 :thumbup: My port incision is fine though, where is it located? Somewhere your clothes rub on it?
