Other Maryland Bandsters?

Hi

I'm wondering if there are other Maryland bandsters out there these days. I live in Westminster and work in Baltimore (Woodlawn). I was banded on 12/6/07 and I'm doing well. I love reading the posts on this forum; I learn a lot from others and crave the support offered here. I just wanted to know if there were others in my area on the forum.

I live in Salisbury MD!

Hi there and welcome. I live in Southern Maryland and work in DC. Congratulations on getting the band. I love mine (sure, we fight sometimes, but what happy couple doesn't, lol). This site is a wealth of information. The good, the bad and the ugly. Best of luck to you.

Hello Maryland Bandster! My name is Debbie. I am a 43 year old mother of three children and I live in Parkville, MD. I was banded on 9/28/07 by Dr. Singh in Catonsville. I have lost 36lbs so far, that brings me to 230lbs. I still have a long ways to go, and I wish my weight loss would speed up. The last month in particular has been extremely slow. I think I need to call my doctor for another fill. Keep in touch.

do you know of any good lap band doctors in Maryland. I know someone who lives in Texas and she is moving to Maryland and needs a doctor to do her care. She was banded in December 2007

What part of Maryland is your friend moving to? :biggrin:

Hi Cynthia,

I live in Reisterstown. I was banded on 1/3/08. Would love to have someone close by to talk/walk/eat with! Hope you are doing well, Meri

I know, I should probably be on the men's forum, but is there anyone out there on the upper Eastern Shore (Q.A., Kent Counties?)

Banded in early 2004 and relapsed, I really NEED to get back on track!

Thanks!

John

I live in Harford County (Forest Hill) and work in Baltimore County at CCBC-Essex campus.

I had Dr. Averbach at St. Agnes and would recommend him to anyone, I love him!

Hi! I live outside of Hampstead and work in Westminster. I haven't met anyone in Carroll County that has been banded. Would love to chat and share support if you are interested.

:smile:Hi. I live in Edgewood, Harford County, Maryland. I was banded 3/25/08 by Dr. Singh at St. Agnes. Singh, Averbach and Von Rueden are the surgeons at St. Agnes. They are a bariatric Center of Excellence, too.

I currently fluctuate between 149 and 152, and my goal weight is 150, so I guess I am there. Now to stay there!

Hi there. I live in Reisterstown. Banded 1/3/08 and doing well. I find this site to be more helpful than my doctor's office. There are hardly ever any post op people at the support group! Meri

I am a patient of Dr. VR at St. Agnes. I live in Annapolis, but work in Brooklyn Park... so St. Agnes is convenient for me. I was recently unbanded :) but today Dr. VR submitted my approval to the insurance company. Send me positive thoughts!!!!!! I hope to soon be back in bandland!
