Hi Y'all

My best friend and I were both banded on May 9th by Dr. Avara in Ocean Springs, MS! We are from Gulfport. All has been well, so far. Just awaiting the 6 week checkup/fill and getting used to a new way of eating. We've just started mushies and Frijoles and Tamale pies from Taco Sombrero on HWY 49N have become our staple.

How is everyone's journey?
