Here's where I am in the process:

-I'm private pay

-I've narrowed down my search to three places: WLIA (drs orris & barros), Dr. Simpson, Dr. Blackstone

-I'm having the surgery in the next 60 days

-I've got a whole bunch of protein samples on the way and once I have them I'm ready to start the pre-surg diet

-I'm scheduling the pre-surg medical tests (I have insurance)

-I'm building a support system (just an occasional support group will not be enough), trying to find a private counselor and personal trainer that are experienced in weight loss surg

I'm looking for bandsters or pre-bandsters that would like to share information, resources, possibly get together, etc.

Untufortunatly I live out in Avondale and I already drive up there once a month for a fill and with the cost of gas I cant afford 2 trips a month thats why I was hoping for a support group out here on the west side
