I'm new here and looking for some lap band buddies... My surgery is set for February 10th, 2009 with Dr. Ikramuddin at the University of Minnesota-Fairview Medical Center. If you'd like to chat, check out my profile and drop me a line.:thumbup:

Hey Stephanie! Nice to finally hear back from someone! So Dec. 30th is your big day? My surgery got moved up to Jan. 20th, so not too long after you! I'm getting a bit anxious to be quite honest. This Friday is the patient ed class and next Tuesday is final visit with the "team". How is your pre-surgery diet? Is that all liquid? That is tough to do over Christmas! I'll definitely be doing the support classes at the U as often as possible...maybe we'll be able to connect sometime there. I live about 30 minutes south of the cities. Current wt is 246 and my goal range is 160-170. Let's keep in touch during our jouneys...~Natalie
