Band Buddy wanted

:thumbup:Hello everyone

I am looking for a "band buddy". I am a female, 28 yrs old (29 in august 08). I am 5'10" and weigh 360 lbs. I wear a size 24/26. I currently live in the Cincinnati, Ohio area. I would like to be banded in September 2008. I am currently attending seminars about Lap Band to find the best fit for me. I have been thinking about get the Lap band for almost 5 yrs now.

If anyone has any similarities and are going to be banded around the same time, drop me a line.

Hello, My name is Erin I had banding done dec of 2007. I lost 20 pounds in post op and then i have lost about 60 pounds in less than 5 mos. i was 330pds and 5'10''. I was maxing a 28/30 and i am now not. I love the band some days are harder than other but it has it's rewards. The weight loss has slowed down but i am getting back on track and going for the goal of 70 more pounds

Janelle, wow such a pretty gal! Welcome to the boards. Look around, we have so many boards here that you might find similarities to make friends.

I started at 330 lbs. and a size 28/30, and lost 47 lbs. pre surgery. I have lost another 34 since. I have never been more glad to do something for myself. I wish the same for you.

You just caught my attention anyway because Janel is my middle name. It would have been my first but my Mom and Dad battled between the two, which of course my Mom won! :lol:
