Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor I would like a female buddy...

Hi, I live in Colorado and am looking for someone to be a buddy with. I've posted on other boards before and haven't had a whole lot of luck.

A little about me, I am 26 and was recently banded with a Realize band on 10/2/08. At my doctor's office yesterday I have so far lost 19 pounds. I have been married for 2 and 1/2 years now and do not have any children yet.

If anyone is interested and is ready to be accountable with me, please let me know.

Thanks.

Hey,

I would like a buddy to keep me accountable too. I am from washington, but i got banded by dr. kirshenbaum in denver. I am currently in denver today for my 2nd fill.

It looks like we started out pretty much the same weight. how tall are you?

Sweet! I am only 2 weeks post-op, but it sucks not having someone to talk to (because I am the only one I know with a band) about stuff sometimes. I am 6' tall, how tall are you? You look really great in your pictures BTW. You have made some really great progress!! :) How many CC's do you have in your band now? Do you always come here to Denver to get your fills or have you gone to a fill center where you live?

If you want, you can PM me and then our convo isn't so public... :rolleyes2: Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Sorry if I misspell (did I even spell "misspell" right? ha-ha) things, but the spell check on here sucks and I don't want to download somthing from a 3rd party website.

Hey,

How's it going? What have you been up to? Would u like to text on the celly? I find it easier to stay in touch on the cell phone. Hope all is well!
