Hi everyone. Im new to this forum.

I got referred jan 2012 so its been just over a year so far. I have a psychologists app on wed and if that goes well should have my surgery within 4 months.

What's sliders?

Sliders are foods that slide right through the band, runny stuff. These foods are dangerous because a person could graze all day long on these-ice cream, pudding all sweets too an not good for your diet.
