i am near greenville, s.c.---where is clover? were there any scary moments to your surgery? and i hear that keeping your protein intake up is #1 . any little hints on surgery, afterwards, etc? all info appreciated-- thanks....

are you being banded in mx or usa? --hope all goes well. not too many folks on this s.c. site, is there? look on the lap band lounge thread--there is a cute quiz about dixie or yankee--the results of mine is on there also--:hungry: i am making one of my "last suppers" tonight- shrimp scampi--after i am banded, i will not be able to handle that much butter again! :biggrin1:

i was 96% dixie, ya'll--the quiz asked me if general lee was my father!!!! born and raised in georgia-been in s.c. for 2 yrs. G.R.I.T.S.----girls raised in the south--that is what my front tag on my van says--that probably says it all.....

dody, thank you so much for the info--i will have to have a "bariatric" size chair--maybe the airlines have this available-- i do not own a chair,only scooter

aracely, thank you for the info. kathy,could you tell me how to reach coyotegirl? thanks

do i go to the members list to send a message to coyotegirl? i am not real good on the computer---once you show me something on it, i can usually remember how to do it though. thanks:)

alexandra--i am hoping for surgery in may for band--you show your start weight was 340-i am about 375 and age 50--i seem to be larger than a lot of the posts i've read. i know you weighed a little less than me, but could i have a little more detail about your loss as someone who started out kinda large?? no offense,just want to hear from someone who may share a few things at that size--thanks!!:nervous

any info on dr rumbaut you can give me? i hope to schedule surgery with him for may---any details appreciated--thanks!!

i have been checking into dr aceves and also into dr rumbaut. aceves info is very good, but dr rumbaut in monterrey is at a fairly large facility. i have not scheduled surgery yet-but any info on your experience with dr rumbaut will be appreciated. i have to make arrangements to take my scooter or a big wheelchair as i cannot walk very far because of my knees. has anyone had to deal with a chair/scooter on trip and has anyone had to buy 2 seats on plane? i weigh about 375---not sure if i will be able to get 2 seats or not---any help is great!!:nervous

hi, i am new to this site-i hope to be banded in mexico in late may-no date yet-i am in upstate s.c.-any info for a newbie is appreciated. what is PBing? think i know-but not sure:confused:
