Well tomorrow my wife and I are going to get banded. Dr Wellborn in Little Rock is doing it and we have herd really good things about him. My wife is set up at 9:00 am and I am at 11 am. We have to go get blood work done today and pay for everything ...:faint:.... I think thats the hardest part. I am getting nervouse now, really cause I have never been in the hospital for anything.

Pray for me and my wife and wish us luck! See you on the banded side!

Hey there are Arkies in here! I am from near Little Rock and I was banded one month to the day before you guys will be. I was banded in Monterrey by Dr. Rumbaut. Good luck! When you get past the gas pains you will be really glad you got banded! I have lost 18lbs in 4 weeks!

Mark,

I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. It is so sweet getting it done together. Now you tell your wife that you will loose quicker than her and it's just a natural thing and for her not to get upset. I've had the band for 2 weeks, lost 21 pounds and I still weigh 4 pounds more than my husband and had to spend 10,000.00 to get there and he's still smaller and 5 inches taller. Go figure.

I will say a prayer for you both. Make sure you both sip and not drink, drinks lots of Water, and walk walk walk.

You will both be fine and losing weight right and left.
