Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Surgery 5/26 -- Looking for a buddy to bond with on banding :-)

[sandradee0124 0]

Hey everybody, I'm more at the end of May, but looking for a person or group to bond with over concerns before and issues afterwards as well as motivate each other!

Let me know!!

I live in Southern California............ 5-3 and will be about 260 before surgery. No big pre-surgery diets but need to lose 10 lbs by then and well on the way.

Hi Sandradee,

I am not a veteran by any means, but I am looking for a buddy to go through this experience with. I was just banded last Friday.

I am happy to help in any way possible.

I was scheduled for 7:30 am which was great. They moved me yesterday to 1:30pm which means a long time without water! I hope I don't have to stay over night!!!:scared2:

Hello I am having my surgery on 5/24/10. I live in Central Arizona, south of Phoenix. 5'6 currently 247 after my 6 month monitored diet. I had my pre-op today!! Seemed like it would never get here...my partner hopes to go thru the process next month. Hope to get to 145...

Now it seems like it is zipping by -- many things to do before the surgery! I'm SO ready though!

Email me anytime: sandy.devine@cox.net
