Hello!!! I am only 2 hours from Baltimore. I go in tuesday for surgery.

I am only 3 days out from being banded. It has been extremely difficult. I am not liking this 2 week pre-op diet. I so relate to how you are feeling and I would be lieing if I said I am doing well with it. Best of Luck and lots of encouragement!!!!

My girlfriend was having some issues. Heartburn...etc. She was ill, but she believes it was from the sinus infection and she was on antibiotics...however, her doctor took her fill out (it was too tight) He did a test (Barium swallow?) (xray-etc) Gave her a break for two weeks and then did a fill and she is doing great now....Hope this sheds some light. I trully feel for you.

How did you do with your diet? I am having such a hard time.

How are you doing with the pre-op diet? If your like me, it hasn't been pretty. It has been a touch couple of weeks. Nicole Cumberland MD 02/26/08 surgery date- Windber Pa

I am getting banded 02/26/08 at Windber as well. They haven't given me my time. We will have to stay in touch. How are you doing with your diet? It has been extremely difficult for me. Best of luck!!!

I just found out today that my surgery date will be February 26th. I start my diet February 14th . I am so very excited. They have me doing a shake in the morning, shake in the afternoon and 350 calorie meal. Not bad. I get to eat a little. So, I am really, really excited. I can't wait to hear from all of you. Love, Nicole Wagoner

Congrats!!!! Soon!!!! Soon!!!! Best of luck, please keep in touch. Love, Nicole Surgery 2/26/2008 url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wpNt117/] [/url]

I am going to Windber...would love to hear about your experience. Thanks, Nicole Cumberland MD

Hey Gals and Guys... I was wondering if anyone has a diet journal that I can download and just type my info into. thanks, Nicole Cumberland MD

I am going through the process of approval. I am 5' 1 3/4" weigh 224. My BMI is 42. I want to have it done now, because I keep putting it off and I keep gaining weight. Everytime I diet...I gain 5 - 10 lbs. Anyway, this site is wonderful and thanks to all of you for sharing your journey. Love, Nicole

Hey everyone, I am in the beginning stages of the process. Was just curious if there is anyone that has had surgery in Morgantown WV or surrounding areas? thanks, Nicole, Cumberland MD

I was just curious. I am going for a seminar August the 16th. I have never heard of this doctor til now. So, if anyone has had him for a doctor or know someone that has, I would love to hear from you. thanks, Nicole Cumberland MD:)
