Hey all! For anyone that needs a buddy or mentor I wanna help! my name is ashley I am 27 from NJ I am married and dont have any children yet... I am 9 months post op and have lost about 100 lbs woot! (still cant believe it) I have gotten a lot of help and support in, my journey and want to help someone else out too! Look forward to meeting some new friends

I desperately need the help. I am over a year out and lost 50 then gained back 15. I am not doing good and think some support would do me good.

HELP!!!!!

You're doing great Ashley!!!!

You can always be my buddy!!

Hey germaine whats up? How are you doing?

not good...what's your secret to all that weight loss?? i was banded on 12/16 and only lost 11 lbs, that really sucks...just got my 1st fill on 1/18 and my dr says that i shouldn't be concerned b/c i didn't have any fluid in my band so he didn't expect me to lose much. He said that i won't start losing until I've had a few fills but i read post from others that have lost alot even b 4 their first fill...I'm getting discouraged....

I truely need a buddy/metor its almost been a year and i havent lost very much . I am depressed from this !

I REALLY need a mentor.

For my first band, the tubing was never connected, making it worthless.

This time, however, the band is working great!!!

I have so many questions and want to do everything right to make sure this band continues to work for me.

Thanks,

Terry

Hi what part of jersey are you from? I would really like a friend to support each other!

i am in ocean county how about you ?

I live in hackensack nj

im in california

I would love the help i need to learn how to eat and portion size

I could really use a mentor/buddy. I am still pre-op and scheduled 4/5/12. I'm in Camden county, NJ.

Ashley -- I wish more people on this site would step up and offer to mentor. There's clearly a need. I'm still a pre-op, so I'm in a holding state. Did the medically supervised diet, but I'm changing docs so things are on hold till April 2.

Keep up the good work!
