Bidmc

Hi All,

I'm just starting the whole process of applying for the lap band at BIDMC. I was wondering if people could give me feedback on their experience, both good and bad (if applicable). Also, which doctor did you use? I'm not sure which doctor I would like to request.

Thanks!

timeforchange the reunion is in late March. I can't quite remember when, but next time you're there ask for a flyer. We would LOVE to meet you!

Deb I can do Tuesday night for dinner. I'll see if Sherry can join us and if anyone wants to join, they are more than welcome! I don't get home from work until 6pm, so it would have to be sometime after that. I'm looking forward to it!

Tuesday night is good for me so far :) Are you meeting halfway from Boston and Mansfield? I know on Route 1 in Dedham there are lots of places to eat...I'm game for anywhere lol

i will be staying in canton, and not working so i am easy. remember i have been in western ma for 15 yrs so i have to look up a place to get there

i will bow to your judgement

i figure i'll take the kids to the movies during the day

and michelle told me about some indoor mini golf the middle mutt wants to go for her birthday

i have tons of stuff to do here but it will be fun to get away

i don't know where most of everyone live and how hard would it be to join, but it would be fun for me to meet ya all

Well we can either meet around here (The 99 in Foxboro, which is right off the highway) around 6pm, or we can meet somewhere on Route One (Joe's in Dedham, The Chateau in Norwood, Chili's in Dedham) around 6:30ish. Sherry you may know more what's up that way. Honestly I'm game for anything, and I hate making decisions. lol. I just need to know by tonight because I can't log onto to LBT from work.

If anyone else from the board is interested in meeting us for dinner, just post that you're coming and we'll be on the lookout for you! I'm going to PM aaamom since she lives in Norwood I think, so she's close by.

OK I'll do it. Chateau Route 1 in Norwood. If you're coming from Canton do you know where Neponset Street is? I can get ya to Chateau from there :)

Ok, it's a plan then! I can be there around 6:30 - do you guys want to meet in the lobby?

sounds good to me. I'll be chatting with ya at work anyway. looks like I'll be working late so I can go right from work to Chateau rather than all the way back home and back again. Kinda silly to do that.

ok, I live LITERALLY around the corner from the Chateau. We promised to take my son out for chinese food since his big sisters will be at a sleepover and he LOVES chinese. I will see if I can stop by for a drink and a quick hello. Don't wait for me to have dinner, though. I have a date with a 7year old.

Hope to see you all tomorrow !!!!!
