Hi, everybody. I'm Laura and I was banded on Aug. 24, 2010. I had my first fill today (Sept.22) and am looking forward to getting support from others who are ahead of me in this journey. My surgeon offers a support group, but it's over an hour away, not counting rush hour traffic!!

Hi Laura...I love dogs too. Congratulations on getting banded. How did you like your first fill? I have had two so far. They didn't do my third fill because I lost 14 pounds in a month. I have been struggling the last 2 weeks though as the scale hasn't moved. I am going to a support group on the 29th. That's a shame yours is so far away. Having a band really does require support! Message me if you'd like To chat.
