Hi from PA!

[Lisa_MC 1]

Hello Everyone!

I'm new here - but, I've been reading for quite awhile. I am considering Lap-Band Surgery. I've had a few tests done, have talked with my Family MD, and have recently found a Surgeon who may be someone I am interested in. This is the beginning of my journey, and I hope to come back here often for friendship, support and encouragement - to get AND to give!!

Thank you!!

Hi Cindy!

I'm in NW Pennsylvania - south of Erie!

Lisa,

You're from the one place I haven't been. I have lots of friends in the Pittsburgh area, but no one in PA as far north as Erie. My in-laws live in Buffalo, so I am very familiar with Lake Erie.
