Karen85 16 Posted March 16, 2013 Hey everyone. I am from queens, ny and I wanted to know if anyone had their surgery at NYU hospital? I would love to get to know people that go to the same place i had my surgery! It would be great! And maybe we can all meet up for the NYU lap band support groups every month that they have. 2 dawndawn10 and ADDrienne reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And maybe we can all meet up for the NYU lap band support groups every month that they have. let me know if you get any other responses Karen. I bet we can get enough of us together to have our own support group in case they cancel April too. I know that Fielding occasionally has an evening out for the patients to get used to eating out. I asked the front desk to let me know when the next one was planned for. So far, I'm not having any issues eating out but I thought it would be a nice way to meet other NYU bandsters. Again...we can probably do the same thing via this site. . 1 dawndawn10 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still feel like I'm "dieting" but I think 1 more fill will put me in my "green zone" 3 dawndawn10, AbbieL and ADDrienne reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
