New In Washington

Hi, My name is Tawnia and I'm from Olympia, Wahington. I had my band done on May 28, 2004. I have lost 19lbs and feel great. I have 4 friends (they are all sisters) that have all had had it done also the first one is 6 weeks out and the last is 2 weeks out. It is nice having them as a support group but I would like to meet others also. I'm looking forward to getting to know you all

Hi Tawn,

My name is Teresa and I live in the Eugene, Oregon area. I am 30 yrs old, married 5 years, no kids but lots of pets. Maybe if we are ever headed in each other's direction we should try to meet up. I am 7 weeks post op and down 32 lbs. Your banded friends will be very important support for you. Best of luck to all of you. Teresa

Thanks for your posting. I think this is going to be great. I guess I could have told you more about myself. I'm 35, married with 2 wonderful boys 16 and 13. Also 2 dogs otis and Jaxxon. I'm a cost accountant for a developer builder. Have a great night. I'm getting ready to eat my fish for dinner. I'm still trying to adjust to this whole new eating plan. I have always over ate and it is really hard to break the habit.

We are very close, I am in Castle Rock WA. I would love to meet up with you someday.

Where did you have surgery and who does your follow up care. I had mine done in Mexico by Dr. Lopez. I am looking for a good fill Dr. and follow up care close to home.
