Had my LAP BAND done on 11-26-2007 in Buffalo, NY at Buffalo General Hospital by Dr. Aaron Hoffman. I've have had no problems what-so-ever and the support from Dr. Hoffman has been FANTASTIC. He is the BEST doctor ever! I would recommend anybody from the Buffalo, Rochester, NY area to have Dr. Hoffman perform the BAND! GREAT DOC!:eek:

well everyone keep me in your prayer that i can do the diet. willing everyone lot n lots of lbs. lost.

I am still on the N Beach Diet... in 6 weeks, I only lost 4.9 lbs and still going slow.. I hate exercising but I walk 4-5 days a week in the morning only... If I don't get it over with in the morning, I talk myself out of it... I am going to try to make the meeting wed night.. I grew up in N Bflo but now live in Canada.. I have dr Posner only because I was so undecided about which surgery to have but now since I have decided, should I switch to Hoffman ? I know you guys are always talking about him and how great he is. I felt pretty comfortable with Posner though. Is the meeting in the same place that they had the seminar ? I hope its not that big.. I had a hard time hearing all that was said with the questions from the attendents.
