Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor 52 year old female needs buddy / mentor or both

My name is Sandy. I am 52 years old and live in the Chicago area. I am currently working through my 3 month diet and am looking forward to being banded late Dec or early Jan. My goal is to lose 100 lbs. I started training for a 5k run in April. LOL, it will probably take me that long to work up to it. It would be great to have someone to share the experience with. We can do this!

Hi ! Congrats on starting this journey ! I'm sure as surgery time draws closer, you'll get more responses for a Mentor ... But I'm always here if you want to chat, or have any questions! :-)

Thanks for the responce Bobbie. I don't have too many questions right now as I am just finishing up my 2nd month of my 3 month diet. I am sure I will have lots of questions once I get through all of the insurance hoops and have a date. I expect that will be sometime in Jan.
