I hope this isn't considered advertising but I just want to thank my local planet fitness. They are running a $99 a year special for the next week. I am only 12 days post banding and can't use the gym yet. They said to sign up, bring in a note from the doctor when I can start and they will add the number of weeks on to the back end of my 'year'. I just thought that was awfully nice, and am so excited that the gym is ready and waiting for when I'm cleared! One more notch in the 'let's lose weight belt'!

That's great! I go to planet fitness too, since the beginning of the year, no complaints here! I'm just over 3 weeks post op and started back yesterday.

Wow, that is really great. I have a planet fitness here too, but I wont use them. They offer great deals, but there are so many people who belong there, I cannot go there! I also suffer from agoraphobia and when I can get into a gym I need a less populous gym to join.

Good luck with them though! I hear nothing but great things!!
