Hello from North Carolina

Hello from North Carolina, My band surgery looks like it’s going to be on May 20th. I’m going in to See my Doctor tomorrow and he wants to tell me about the Realize band (I have read all 14 pages from the Realize band post) not sure if I made up my mind yet, all my test are finished and the insurance has approved it.

Thanks for this forum there is a lot of great info on it

Welcome to LBT! I'm a little jealous - North Carolina is one of my favorite places - and next to Indy, I think Asheville, NC is one of my favorite cities in the US.

Good luck with your surgery! Enjoy learning on the forum and best to you on your journey.

Hi Jim from the "other" Carolina! Congratulations on your approval. My doctor has also mentioned doing the Realize band, but not sure yet. Where are you from in NC? My hubby is from near Whiteville, about 40 minutes from Lumberton.
