Hello Yall.... My name is Lisa and I am new here. I was just banded on April 2 (48 hrs ago) by Dr. Pachivat Kasemsap in Melbourne florida.

I am anxious to meet new friends here and learn from everyon's personal experiences.

I was so excited upon entering the hospital because I lost 16 lbs on my preop diet so that was so encouraging.

I have been overweight my whole life and as I am sitting here trying to drink my boost resource beverage gone (mind you it has been 30 minutes) I am marveling in the fullness already.....

Thank you for starting this forum and allowing me to be part of this "band wagon".

:scared2:
