Just wondering if anyone else will be going to Dr. Fernando Garcia during the week of May 6 to May 11. My surgery is on May 6 at Florence Hospital. Just want to meet up with others having their's the same time to share experiences.

I have created the group. You must send me a private email to add you to the group.

So I just had my fill Dr here completely unfill my lapband today. Total of 3.3cc taken out of a 4.0cc band. Did not feel like I had any restriction at all.

He began lecturing me that "you have not worked your lapband hard enough"

LOL.

OH...OKAY Mr Doctor who makes $375 on every fill that does not work.

After five years of fighting with my band and putting all the weight back on, I will make sure and remember that a year from now.

I saved this article from yesterday as I have had this happen. 30 minutes in TJ without realizing I had not turned off my data package. 200 later.

I could have bought a great pair of shoes in 30 minutes.

Your surgery will pay for itself. I'm happy for you.

Send me your email address and I will add you to our FB group.

Ok. I can surely do that too!

I created a group tonight. email address and I will add you.

will you be staying at the Marriott like the rest of us? I would imagine that you will be released to the hotel on the same night I fly in (the 9th).

It might be good if we all PM each other our first/last names and phone numbers so we can check on each other for support. I am guessing if I tell the Marriott "I am looking for 1hotmomma" they will think I have lost my mind. LOL

Yes, I am staying at the Marriott. I will send you a pm.

Am I the only one who needs to be on Xanax for my nerves? everyday I go between being very excited for this opportunity and going into the corner, curling into a ball and sobbing.

I am really not liking myself the past two days.

C do you have an iPhone w viber?? I can can call u!

no. I have a Samsung Galaxy. We can always skype. However, I would have to get an account set up. I think we would all be doing so much better with our nerves if we could talk real time (well, at least I would feel better )

I have Skype if u do want to chat. Somedays I think I look pretty damn cute & wonder if I NEED this ... Then I think I'm only a few months off the pills and have gone up rapidly. If I knew I would stay this size forever I would - but I'm def not ... I don't want to wait till I'm bigger which is inevitable. Pull out some old photos of your largest weight ... And keep it on the fridge x
