Hi Judy, I got banded June 5 at Ohio State by Dr. Mikami who's very nice. You're right. Mansfield is only an hour away by a speeding beetle!!!! Judy H

Hi bootboots, I live in Columbus but I'll be happy to be your band-buddy. Judy H

Thanks. JudyH

I have a question. What exactly are mushies? Also, I know we can drink all types of juices but what about V8? Judy H. :help: :hungry:

I belong to another online support group who I send jokes :faint:to. I would be happy to send some to any of you who wish to be on it. Let me know. :ranger: JudyH :car:

Thanks. I live on the east side of Columbus and I'll check it out.

I'm in Columbus but the only one I know about is up at Ohio State and mostly gastric bypassers attend it.

:help: I know I can't eat sticky foods. What about ethnic Jewish food like Lox, Herring, Gilfilte Fish, Bagels, etc. JudyH

Capt. Jack, Good for you. I may not have as much equipment as you did but I have my share!!! Suction machine (UGH), concentrator and assorted other stuff.

Hello, I'm JudyH from Columbus, OH. I received my band on June 5 at Ohio State. For my insurance co to pay 80% of the surgery, I had to take 6 months of "Living Well" classes at Ohio State. I took them happily!!! I then had to take an intense nutrition class for a month which I found interesting. Good luck on your journey.

Hello, As I said, I was banded June 5 by Dr. Mikami from Ohio State. I'm single but I included all my family members and friends in my decision. My mother wasn't to keen on the idea at first but when she saw how determined I was to get it, she stopped fighting with me about it. Both my brothers were very excited for me and never complained at all. Include your husband and family and everyone will be comfortable with it. I hope that helped. Judy H

Nice to meet you. Is Dr. Needleman nice cause Dr. Mikami is very nice.
