Hi there,

I am considering Dr. Kirshenbaum in Aurora, CO (www.lapbandrockies.com) I know that there are a few of you in LBT that went to him. I am interested in knowing your thoughts on him and if you have had any complications. I am just a little leary since the price is so low, there is little on the internet about him, and I will be traveling from WI to have this done. Any information you could provide would be much apppreciated...

Thanks!

Sheila:)

Danyett, welcome! Nice to have another local on here to drag to Red Robin every month.

Julie, no change for me. Haven't gained, haven't lost. It was a crazy week here...homecoming week at the high school where I work, and I was in charge of the dance. So relieved it's over.

sounds fun!!!!

Welcome, Danyett! This is a great place to hang out. If you have questions, or just need support, this is the place to start.

Thank you!!!

Hi I will be banded on 10/16/09 by Dr. kirshenbaum I am very excited he was awesome at the consult and am looking forward to starting my new life! Glad to see so many are happy with him.

Welcome Danyett! Dr. K is the best! He's been my biggest cheerleader! I call him the "Fat Whisper" He is willing to help give us a chance at a new life. I love that about him!

I did no dancing. Not sure you could call what the kids did dancing either...more like foreplay. You'd be horrified to see how teenagers dance these days (wow, I sound old). Lots of grinding and they don't ever face each other.

Luckily, all my purchases at Party City were covered by the school.

Oh my! I could respond to that, but it's best not to... Yikes!

The dance was fun. I'm exhausted though. I only had time to eat crappy this week, and didn't get to go to water aerobics at all because my school has homecoming events all week, every night. I'm amazed I didn't put any weight on.

The Hall of Fame Induction was sooo cool. Roger and I had a blast. Of course I didn't win at the casino, but loved it. The casino is huge and I got lost three times.

Hi Julie,

Please put me down for minus 1.5 punds this week.

Mary

Yippie!

I just got my HgbA1C results!

It's 5.3. That means my average blood sugar is running 110.

I am thrilled!

Before losing weight, I was pre-diabetic and I couldn't get my A1C below 5.6. It just wouldn't budge!

Another NSV!

I love NSV's!!!:biggrin:

Wow, that is really impressive! Congratulations!!!! That's a very IMPORTANT NSV!!!

I need to have mine checked again. It was still stuck on 5.9 last time, but I'm really hoping it has gone down.

Hey Girl! 5.9 is nothing to sneeze at! I think that's great too!
