Hi! I live just outside Columbia,MD and I'm getting sleeved in December at the Anne Arundel Medical Center. Looking to meet or connect with anyone in the area

Welcome aboard! I will say that I am very pleased to see that you have already gotten your profile together. That is a great first start. Many people don't bother to do that at all, so it is refreshing to see it. This forum provides a wealth of knowledge and experiences, so please pick our brains any time you have questions, and provide your experiences as well. Good luck on your journey!

Not exactly in the neighborhood, but reasonably close... (I'm a couple hours northwest of you in Cumberland, MD)..

Welcome! I had my sleeve 7 months ago in Mexico.

Hi, I'm in Annapolis, and surgery is at AAMC, too, with Dr. Gandsas. My surgery date is pretty far in the future -- March 14th.

Apple! I didn't realize we were practically neighbors! (Ok, I never get down there anymore, but grew up in Calvert County, so used to go to Annapolis all the time!)

@Berry78, and my dad grew up in Cumberland! I'm gonna call you my Irish surgery twin, being as our surgeries are less than a year apart. :-)

I love that Apple and Berry are Irish twins, sounds like the beginning of a delish fruit salad!

And welcome, @kelsen! I'm sort of near you, in Loudoun County, VA. I figure if I work in an office with people from where you are, it's close enough to be in the "neighborhood!"

@kelsen I see you surgery date is December 19th -- you must be pretty excited! I'm gonna want to hear all of the details since we have the same surgeon. I still dont even know what the pre-op diet is -- so if you want to dish, I'm dieing to hear!
