Hi since I am new a little bit about me. I am on my journey to get banded. I have heard lots of pros and cons about the band but out of them all I feel that this is the way for me to go. I am planning on losing lots of weight but if I just lose enough to get me off my meds I will be happy . I want to also use it as a maintance tool. I can't wait to hear all of your stories about the band. I lurk a lot but love to talk:banana . God bless.

Frances: I was born and raised in Princeton, Kentucky. I know about the general area where Somerset is located. How close to Madisonville or Marion are you?

Where are you having the surgery done? Who is your doctor?

Glad to have you on board. Welcome.

When is your surgery date?

Welcome Frances,

Good luck with your journey getting the band. Can't wait to get to know you more. Teresa:)

Hi Frances, nice to meet you! Good luck with your explorations and don't be afraid to ask whatever off-the-wall question you might be able to come up with. We've heard 'em all! :)
