Hi everyone!! I have sent most of you friend requests on Facebook - if I missed someone my emails is

kris_p1213@yahoo.com

:thumbup:)

I too would love to be part of a Facebook group! I am on there all the time however, I have only told 5 people in my life about my band... NOT a single family member knows and I want to keep it that way so if you all will "pinky band swear" that you won't post anything at all about it, I will add you as soon as I get home from work tonight!!! I can't risk some of my friends (and I have almost 300) knowing about this surgery.

sounds good to me, I was banded 1/11/2010 my email is

lyndaayers@bellsouth.net I was going to try to do an invitation to all of you that posted on this if someone knows an easy was to to all of them let me know.

Add me, mine is lmpayton@cox.net, I was banded January 20th and would love someone to talk to about it!

I realized that I have every privacy setting on Facebook turned on so you might not be able to find me. I'll fix it so you can find me and I'll add the newcomers tonight when I get home from support group and dinner. I'll also look for the group at that time.

BTW - Everyone knows I'm going to have the band done. So no worries about what you post on my pages. And I'll respect others wishes to keep it private too. We are all here for each other which is what matters most.

Talk to you all soon.:thumbup:

I am on facebook but through the email I have not set this up I am just scotty DeSchepper type it in the search I am there.

I would love the support as well. pinknapkin27@yahoo.com

Michele, I just sent you a request to join the group!

I, too, spend way more time on FB than anywhere else and would love to get to know you all there. :thumbup:

I sent a request to joim the group and I also tried to add as many of you as I could. Some of the email addresses didn't work so if I missed some of you, please feel free to add me. donnajo1951@gmail.com

I didn't tell anyone in the beginning either and I totally understand why you are not ready to tell folks. I even had a separate FB page for band stuff for awhile. Then when people started noticing and started asking me what I did to lose weight, I just started telling people. Then I got rid of my other FB page and combined them. My Band doc is even one of my friends!! I woulld love to see you all over on FB!! Cheers!
