Hi Lisa,

I too am just beginning this journey and really don't know anyone on this site. Hope we can help each other! When were you banded?? I had mine done on the 19th of July.

Hello Kristie!!

It's a pleasure to meet you!! I don't know many folks on this site either - but they all seem very nice, knowledgeable, and easy to talk with!

Ohhh, I'm not banded - yet! I am in the beginning stages of the whole thing. Talked with the PCP and the insurance company, found a surgeon in my area, and am attending my first seminar next wednesday!

Congratulations on YOUR band tho!! I am anxious to hear about your journey!

I am new here also.

Lisa, I went to my info seminar this past Wednesday, I think the same day as you! So it looks like we are right at the same spot! I'd love to get to know more people on here for support! I have support from my family but it would be nice to have it from people that are going through it as well!!
