  1. I hadn't been on the forum lately, because I was waiting to talk to my doctor and I was going to that in Aug, but my appointment got cancelled, but have another appointment soon and will start there and if I get the get go, I am sure I will have more questions. I have been to the main forum and have read there a few times. Hopefully this forum will stay active.
  2. Hi, thanks so much for your reply. I have a physcial on the 29th of Aug and will talk to my regular doctor about this. I don't know this doctor very well and will have to feel him out. (we not litality) I may have trouble because I don't have hi blood presure or diabetes. But I have a lot of back pain and leg problems, beside being tired and not being able to do much. I could stand to lose 130 lbs. Not real crazy about all the phy counseling, but sure I will have to go thur it. Well It can't hurt. They may find something really crazy about me.......Ha,Ha. I do know that I am an emotional eater. We will see how it goes with the physical first. I find myself changing my mind quit often. But once I make up my mind I'll go the whole route. I am 60's old and have been fighting this weight battle for years and it is always winning.
  3. Hi, Your email caught my eye, because I am thinking about the Lap Band and I want to have it done in Rochester MN. I live in the Owatonna area, so would be fairly close to me. I haven't talked to my DR. yet, as I am gathering information and glad to see that Rochester does this surgery. How did your interview go, if I may ask? Thanks for any information you would like to share.............
  4. Hi, I am doing some checking on the Lap Band surgery and I like to get other opinons. Since I live in Mn, I would like some support. Thanks.
