Hey everyone I was banded 3 days ago. Looking for some people to go through this journey with :)

Hi everyone!

I've had the band for about a year and a half now and its hard to talk about it with family and friends because they don't seem to get the full depth of it. Don't get me wrong they are all very supportive but just can't relate to my eating ways and how slow I eat ahahah

How's everyone dealing/coping with the band?

Just wanted to chat to a few people who's going through the same thing :)

I'm in the Eastern burbs of Melbourne and I got my original band in 2008 and a replacement band 2 months ago. Happy to chat with any fellow Victorians. I was originally from WA and made a few banded friends there so hoping to do the same here in Melbourne.

Hi lellow! I would love a banded friend, I still feel like its all new to this. Maybe you can pm me :)

Hey everyone! Also from Melbourne! Seeing as you guys a veterans at this can u give me some advise? I'm up to the mushy food stage.. Any ideas on what to eat? X
