Other Maryland Bandsters?



Recommended Posts

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.

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

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 Patchelton! You have done fantastic!! How did you lose so much in 9 months? Since Dr. Singh is no longer with Averbach, do you travel to Columbia to see him? Congrats again!

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

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
