Okay ya'll. We need to meet. Seriously. I know that Leslie at OTC is working on getting a support group going, but all of us Bandits really need to get together.

I know a lot of people aren't in Albany, but we could shoot for dinner somewhere at say 7:00? A Tuesday would be good. I know summer weekends are usually pretty full. What do you think?

I say we have a vote and narrow down a date. Put your name down and a good day for you and hopefully we can agree on something:

Leslie - Tuesday, June 24

Hey Everyone!

Back from the Honeymoon!! Jamaica was absolutely beautiful. We had a blast. I managed to only gain 2 pounds despite the constant booze and food consumption so I think I did pretty darn well. I think flying would temporarily cause my band to get really tight on me. I noticed being extremely tight just after a flight. But we are back safe and sound and I am absolutely swamped. I have two weeks worth of work waiting on me and this is a short week with the holiday. I will try to update when I can. To see pics of the wedding, if anyone would like to, go here: Main Gallery

Glad the support meeting went great!

Mia you look so beautiful! I'm glad to hear that ya'll had a blast. Your pictures turned out wonderful as well.

The support group meeting went great. I was so happy to finally meet everyone that was able to attend.

Leslie and Terri (from OTC & Dr. :thumbup: stopped by to chat. They are getting an official support group started. Leslie said she is aiming for the end of the month, the first of August to get a letter out to everyone. She wants to get some "old bandsters" involved as well as guest speakers (nutritionists, counselors, etc). We had a good time and I enjoyed meeting everyone that was able to attend. Terri also mentioned that Dr. B is wanting to get a newsletter started as well...all is in the works.

We missed some of you (you know who you are)!

Hey Mia! Glad to her you had a blast on your honeymoon! The pictures turned out good, the wedding was beautiful. You made a beautiful bride and ya'll make a very cute couple. I'm glad you made it back safe and sound.

Great photos, Mia! Looks like it was a beautiful wedding. Now back to the real world, huh? Hope Jamica was great!

I'm having my surgery in San Antonio this month. I was approved last month, done pre-op bloodwork and currently on pre-op diet. I just moved back to Savannah and will have to have my aftercare here. Any good DR's you can reccomend?

I used Dr. Angstadt and his partner is Dr. Whipple. They are both good and have a lot of experience. I hope you have good luck with the change. I have moved away from Savannah and the nearest Dr. here will not take other surgeons patients. I hope I can find one and not drive 4-5 hours to Savannah for fills. Best wishes!
