I am looking for a LapBand Buddy. Doesn't necessarily have to be someone in SoCal but someone willing to share their success and defeats via e-mail and text. Someone who can swap photos of food and recepies. Encouraging each other and being a positive influence. We all slip up at some point and that's ok, I'm not perfect and not looking for a drill instructor.

Man or woman, younger or older, doesn't matter, we already have a connection and something in common with the Band.

Let me tell you about myself:

26 year old wife and mother of a 16 month old baby girl

I do have encouragement in my life for the band but feel I could use someone in a similar situation on this journey to weightloss

Outgoing and very open, I'm an honest person

Maybe we could e-mail and get to know eachother and then exchange numbers? Even if its a thumbs up photo or a picture of Protein, something to help encourage eachother. Not to mention, who doesn't love e-cards for a good laugh.

Band was placed a couple years ago and within months I became pregnant! Had a rough pregnancy due to blood clots and finally after a year once my daughter was born, got my first fill. I do not live close to my doctor which makes it even more difficult.

Ok, I feel like I'm leaving a dating profile I love long walks and....... you get it.

Anywho, and having a hard time without a lapband buddy and would love to have one :-)

Where did you get banded and Where is your docor located I was banded at Marina Del Rey ,but I go get my fills in Costa Mesa by my doc. cause that is where he is twice a week as I went to Dr. Oliak and my ins. would approve it for as much as he wanted and it is to bad cause he is like 10-15 in away from my house and the hospital is only 30 min away , you can look at my profile ,post and even my gallery , I do need to update but the site won't let me upload pics right now , we'll go from there then you can p.m. me if you want and I should receive it, then ,let me know where you live I will say I live in Orange county , just hope it is not to far.
