JodyLynne 1 Posted February 22, 2009 Hi everyone! I live in Brea and will be banded by Dr. Kelly Francis on 03/25/08 at FVRMC. I actually have my first face to face appointment with her tomorrow. I've attended all my classes and have had my cardiac clearance. I'm really looking forward to this process! Wish me luck! And good luck to all of you in this process, too!

mamabutercup 0 Posted April 6, 2009 Support group meetings? hey gals, I know alot of people have asked about support meetings, I was just wondering if you all would be interested in doing one. I have not been able to attend my support meetings through the doctors, since they are only available on Mondays. I can't do Mondays. Let me know. You can email me directly too if you like. I was hoping we could set something up for this month. I would really love to be able to chat face to face with others who know what I am going through.
