I just got banded on 10/22/09 through Alexian Brothers hospital. My surgeon was Dr Rantis. I am female, 38, married and live in Buffalo Grove. At surgery I was 246 pounds, I am 5'5. I am on a full liquid diet - week 1.
I am looking for a mentor to help me with the journey and shed some light on what to expect. I think that having mentors is a great idea and can help people get through good and bad :cursing:
