    Hi Amyc007, I am from central mass and just had my lap band removed and converted to a sleeve on 3/12. I had it done by Dr. Perugini at Umass. So good to hear there are other folks from around here on this BP! I highly recommend the Umass program and Dr. Perugini for anyone that is interested! Feel free to ask me lots of questions, that's how we all get through right? I've had great support, I'm happy to be here you all as well :)
