Does anyone have contacts or people near Ft Wood/Waynesville/Rolla/Cuba area that are bandsters? That have been through the pre-post & after care process? I am resolved & excited about finding a tool to help me lose weight. I need some answers and maybe a suppport group. What about it any one out there in this region? LaLee:eek:

Who is oyur psych eval being done through. I am Ft Wood area, ya know of anyone there?

No you are not the only one, but I am having a time finding a support group between St. Louis & Springfield. I am wondering if Columbia Hospital is the best place to have this surgery. BCBS says its a good place. HOw about yours? any comments questions about this one?

I am going in for the pre op psych visit. I have a couple of questions. Just What is the diet pre & post op? I see alot of 40 somethings but not many 50 somethings. Can you share some of your story wth me? :help: Age related functioning? Is it too late for me to consider? MyBMI is 45. I gotta do somethng. :faint: Th band stays in for life right? Anyne out there had theirs longer than 5 years? Anyone have to have another surgery to replace/remove/redo the surgery. Thanks to all who reply.

Hi Baby Ruth I am trying for surgery At Columbia Bariatric too Jan Feb hopefully. Any word on how DeLa Torre is as a surgeon?. His Bio reads awesome..but what about him? My seminar he could not attend as he was "called in for emergency". I was disappointed. Would like to know who is cutting on me. What is your taqke on Columbia's evaluation system?

what regime are you using to work out? anything u are using to achieve these results? food supplements etc.

I have just begun the pre op process........I too am scared that I will die on the table. But I am eating myself to death. I wll not be fat 4 ever. This is the c=best tool. I have tried so many. My hubby is very supportive. He like me big but I do not. He want me to be healthy!!
