Hello Chantaljoy! I just joined yesterday. I am hoping to get banded this winter as well. Good luck to you!

Hello JavaGal! I'm new here as of this evening as well. My first appointment with the doctor is this wednesday. This should be a wild ride! I can't wait.

Hello Kellers! I'm new here as of a couple hours ago. I went to my seminar, and have my 1st dr's appointment on Wednesday. I'm a bit nervous, but I'm doing okay. This looks like it will be an exciting ride! Welcome aboard.

Well, here I am, making my first journal entry here. What to say??? hmmmm..... Well, let's see, let's just get caught up to where I am. Well, I've always been overweight, and I have always been treated as such. I am an optimist, which has helped me through, because if I weren't, who knows where I'd be now. Life has been cruel to me in some aspects. It's hard when, no matter where you go, the main thing you are known for is that you're fat. I'm known as the funny fat guy who always has a smile, and never gets the girl. I know, kinda sad and depressing, but it's just a fact. I have tried everything else, and now it's time for the last resort. In most aspects of my life, things are great. I have a good career, I'm talented, successful, fun to be around, and in general, pretty darn good. The only thing missing is to have someone to share my life with. That special someone. It's time to make a change.

Hello mysherrijo! I just replied to your other post. I do live in Paducah, out here in Lone Oak. I attended the seminar with Dr. Argotte and I have my appointment with him on Wednesday this week. I would love to hear more.

Yes, here in Paducah. Why didn't you let him do yours?

I am planning on having Dr. Argotte do my surgery. I am hoping to find someone that had it done by him.
