HI MY NAME IS CHRISTINA BARNES, AND I AM NEW TO THE SITE. MY SURGERY DATE IS SEPT. 29. I AM GOING WITH THE LAP BAND. ANY ADVISE ANYONE CAN GIVE ME WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.:tt2:

Hi Christina, and welcome to LBT. We have an active and growing September bandsters group, and you might want to add your name to the list. We just had a report back from our first to be banded, and she's doing great.

My suggestion is, if you haven't yet, be sure to get all your paperwork organized, so you know what you need when you need it. I got so much information from my doctor, from the nutritionist, on and on, that it became a tad overwhelming.

Best of luck to you!!
