NuBeginnings2012 6 Posted January 27, 2012 This group is a great idea! I know we have a lot of banded people in Idaho. It would be nice if we could all communicate through this site and eventually plan some get togethers or events to support one another. This is a great place where soon to be banded persons (like me) could be mentored by experienced banders and experienced banders can inspire one another. The Women's Fitness Celebration in September or the Great Potato would be great activities to bring us together. Now that I know this group has been created I'll pass on the information to other people who will be interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluetigereyes 95 Posted February 3, 2012 Its great to see another Idaho "bandster" How are you doing? I am 6 weeks post-op. Who is your doctor? If there is anything you need, just ask Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NuBeginnings2012 6 Posted February 4, 2012 I need to schedule my psych eval and dietitian consult. Who did you use and were you pleased with the interaction? Did you have to have a sleep apnea test overnight or did your primary care provider just do an overnight pulse oximetry and sleep apnea screen? My surgeron is Dr. Anderson and his weight loss coordinator Jamee Brinkerhoff has been an amazing support. She is such an inspiration being a bandster herself. She looks gorgeous! I'm going to let her know about this group so Jamee can get the word out to other Idaho bandsters. This is a great site! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluetigereyes 95 Posted February 7, 2012 I have seen a few people post on the forum that they are in Idaho. I would love to be able to get a group of us together, I know that support is a HUGE benefit and the more support we can get, especially locally, the better. I adore Jamee, she is an amazing person and is in the perfect position as the coordinator for Dr. Anderson. She knows her stuff and is a true testament of success. I'm here if you have any questions.
