Hey all my name is Kristen and i am from NY, I just attended a lap-band seminar 4/28 with Dr kwon and i very excited! Most of my pre-op appts are for may and some into june. I hope i can have surgery by the end of june or beginning of july. I have been heavy since i was born (literally) I weight 334.00 and have about 180lbs to loose.. I know its alot and people are like why don't you go for gastric, FIRST of all i can't see anyone rearrangeing my insides *yuck* and i need something that can guide me for the rest of my life. Hope to meet everyone. Thanks

Kristen
