Hi everyone, I was banded on 2-26-07.I live on a wheat farm in Montana.(Big Sky Country!)I'm 51.My 2 children are grown and married,but live within 30 miles of us.So I get to see all 6 grandkids often! That's part of the reason I decided to do this.I just didn;t have the energy to keep up with them as much as I want to.Also my health. I'm taking 8-10 Rxs each morning and I'm hoping that as I lose wt.I can get off them. I am diebetic,have high blood pressure and last year had a bout with kidney stones that had to be surgically broken up and removed. I've had all the gen. surgeries- appendix,t&a,gallbladder. My pre surg.wt.was 220lbs.and after a week I'm down 5lbs. I would love to hear from some of you who are going thur the same things.:girl_hug:

Hey Deb, I just know this will work for you.I'm also a nurse and live in Mt. We just have to do this 1 day at a time. Good luck!

Thanks,I'm private pay too.So that's probably it.And your right also.Maybe in talking to the Dr.he decided I didn't need one.

Hi, Congrats on your banding! I just had mine on 2-26-07.I know what you mean about moving off clear liquids! Tomatoe juice never tasted so good! Good luck to you. chelle:clap2:

Hi , This is my 1st reply.And it's more of a statement.I didn't have to have a sphy.eval. Am I the only one?
