I have just had lap band the 30th of Mar. Hadn't gotten alot of information before surgery so would love to have someone who has had success. I would like some knowlege of ideas of meals and would be great if they lived in northern Illinois so that maybe we could meet once in awhile would be nice as well. Thanks newbegins10
