A new member and a new beginning

Hello All

I am about to start my new lease of life on the 7th of feb in Lyon France. I am not nervous but very excited. I weigh 264 Ibs and 5'6". I need to lean on you all in the coming months and will try to pick your brains as much as possible so please bear with me. I live in Ireland with my hubby and 2 kids. Life is good........but will get better. I am lucky in that I don't suffer health wise YET but I want the lap band to prevent anything happening further down the road. I want to be on this earth as long as possible. Watch this space!!!!!

I am thinking about going to MX for my lapband. It is substantially less expensive and from talking to others who have gone, it's very very safe and very good. Anyone out there who has been?

Hello, I have not been banded as yet. I have been doing a lot of research, have been to a seminar and have talked to several people who have had the procedure done.

I would love to talk to more people who went to Mexico.

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

Yes Ireland is a beautiful place.......really. It is rapidly expanding now and buildings are shooting up everywhere. I am from Dublin but I live in the county next to Dublin called Meath, its very scenic.

Welcome, IrishAnna! Good luck to you, and post any questions...someone will be around to answer! Use the search feature, too...it's a wealth of info from past questions and concerns...I used it so much right before my banding. Good luck! Cindy
