    I was banded by Dr. Alex Esquivel in Feb. It was the best thing I did for myself. Welcome to this forum and a new life. This is great place with wonderful support.

Welcome! I haven't gotten my band yet, but everything is ready and I've started the diet, just waiting for my slow Hematologist to get back to my surgeon for medical clearance then Surgeon's appointment and surgery shortly after! Eeep! I wish you a speedy approval!

I'm in Webster, Texas. It's right outside of Houston. =)
