Sharpie 3,306 Posted June 17, 2013 Hey, I live near Lake City.. actually about 20 miles -in McAlpin.. I had my band in January ..I can recommend a good surgeon in Gainesville...We also have a monthly support meeting I believe it's the 2nd Monday.. at the Lake City Medical Center 7 PM.. if you need to contact me.. my email is: charhorse@msn.com I think you are on the right path.. I am much older than you but I am very happy I had the band.. I have lost 45 lbs. so far and feel like a new person.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
