    Hi Belinda! Welcome to LBT! :thumbup:

    You know, sometimes the waiting is the hardest part. Who's doing your surgery?

    I have an appointment with Dr. Simpson tomorrow. I went to a recent seminar and was very impressed by him. Any regrets Bigdog? What can you tell me about your experience? Anything unexpected happen?

    Thanks!

    Hey, Big! Glad to see you found your way over here. I see you lost 30 years since you were banded--just kidding, you're showing up as age 11 here on your profile.

    Hope you are still doing well and recuperating well from the surgery. I was sore for a few days and had a bit of trouble getting up out of a chair, but it faded quickly.

    How are you feeling? I was banded a little over a month ago. It really is easier than I had thought. I was really tired for a good two weeks. Took naps everyday to make it through the day.

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry it has taken me so long to get back with you. I just weighed my self and since I came off all food restriction i have gained 7 pounds. Sucks. Does anyone know how long you have to wait before you get your first fill.
