Band Buddies Long Island

I need a band buddy. It's important to stick together and learn that we aren't alone when it comes down to it. Just being each other motivation and what not keeping each other posting while dealing with this life change. Just send me a message telling me about yourself and your goals and what not. Looking forward to hearing from new people and learning more.

Hey-

Also looking for support in this process. I was banded in 07 in North Dakota and did SO well with a great support team there! So I do believe its extremely important!

The past year I had issues w it, and just yesterday I had my band emptied because of a slip! :( so I'm back to 4 weeks of liquid diet and would LOVE to hear suggestions for amazing healthy soups/ smoothies and any recommendations for protein!

Definitely need a good support team here, hit me up! :)
