Anyone close to central Arkansas?

I'm in Greenbrier AR. Where are you? I was banded sept 19 2012 at Baptist health

I was banded in Feb at baptist. I live in Maumelle. How's it going so far?

I'm doing good, I get my 1st fill oct 18. Right now I am eating cottage cheese and soup and sometimes pretzels as a splurge. I'm able to eat like a cup at a time. How drastic of a change will it be after the 1st fill? I have lost 22 lbs. do you work or have kids?

Hey I was banded Sept 21 at Baptist. Although we live in Springfield we would love to be back in Little Rock. Down 14pounds.

We live off of Springfield rd, near Wooster ar. We are pretty close. Do you have kids?

Ours is actually Springfield Missouri, I do have kids a son 22 and a daughter 4. Who is your doctor?

Oh that Springfield. I moved here from Cali a year ago so I don't know where everything is. My dr is Gibbs

I go for my first feel October 30th and can't wait. Sounds like your doing really good.

The first fill is wonderful after going through bandster hell.

What do you mean bandster hell?

It's the time period between being banded and your first fill. It's when you are operating on sheer willpower.

Ohhh! Today has been my hardest day. But still not too bad, 2 bites if ice cream, I'm just eating the normal good stuff but every hour or so. Tomorrow is a new day.

Ya right now you have to focus on healing.

I'm in Little Rock, getting banded Oct 19 in Mexico. Really excited and really nervous. I have never had surgery before. Nice to meet y'all!
