Hello everyone I am new to this site but I have been reading and watching it for some time now. I am eager to step in and meet some individuals that are experiencing what I am experiencing. I want to share in your weight loss success just as I want you to share in mine .

Hi Cherry...I was banded 2 months ago (May 26th) and have lost 30 lbs so far. How about you? Are you banded yet and how are you doing? This is a great place for information.

Hey Jodi2523,

Congrads on your success with the band. 30 pounds in 2 months that's what I’m talking about. I am not banded (YET). I am just beginning the process. I'm actually attending the seminar on August 17, 2010 and I suppose shortly after that it will be determined the additional appointments required for me and then my approval.

I'm lucky my insurance doesn't require the 7 months of weigh in’s like several others do. It appears I will still have a 3 or 4 month wait on any procedure happening for me. I'm looking at the big picture it will happen at some point but until then I will be reading and educating myself...

Nice to meet you Jodi 2523

Hey Cherry,

At way point are you now? Do you have a date? I am just starting out.

Hi Cherry,

I am new here too, I am scheduled for surgery Aug. 5th. I am very excited to share this experience with others too.
