The First Time I Have Found Anyone To Talk About Lapbands!

Hello Everyone,

I was banded almost a year and a half ago and have felt soooo alone!

Oh my gosh, I hope to find some kindred souls to share with!

I have lost 50 lbs and have 50 more to go!

Anyone out there??

:)

Oh Wow! :)

I can't get over that anyone answered so quickly! :)

I don't know how to respond and chat individually ("NOT" a natural on the computer)...but I will figure it out! I would sure love to talk to you...I have been struggling and there is very little I can do but wait to see my surgeon. I live near Montreal and we don't have any connection with any "groups" as such. I will be back later and try to figure out how to "chat". I have to go now...but to the everyone who responded to my first reach out e-mail: THANK YOU!!!!! :)

I will be back later!

Welcome FNA! Congrats on the 50lbs, that's awesome. You will find lots of love and support here. We also have a little fun now & then. Look forward to your posts. Take care.

Hello there. I'm also new here. I was banded October 5th, 2012. All I can say is, the GAS THE HORRENDOUS GAS! I feel like a break room Water cooler bubbling up trapped air!

Ha! Well I'm told this goes away to!

I did not know there was an actual "chat room"! I have exclusively used the IPhone app since i signed up and it does not have that option. I will have to get on the computer soon and check it out.
