Turning 60, Getting Banded

Hi All!

I am excited to say that I am getting banded 2 weeks from today, and also that next month I will turn 60 !

I will be having my procedure at the Brigham & Women's in Boston, Dr Malcolm K. Robinson, surgeon.

I look forward to reading and sharing posts as I near my Banding date and after.

    Hi and Welcome!

    I was banded on Dec 4th and am enjoying pretty good success with it. I lose slowly, but that has been my pattern for years so nothing is new. Point is - I am losing!

    I can suggest a great thread for you as you begin this journey - it's "50 and over gang, we have a new spot." It has been a pretty active thread for some time and I enjoy the people who post there so much. I figure I am 50 and then some (turned 67 today!), and that group has been kind enough to let me hang around. I think you will find them to be very supportive and fun.

    Meanwhile, welcome to bandland. Keep us posted on your progress and if you have any questions just ask!
