Hello from the other side of the Atlantic!

[KateP 359]

Just calling in to introduce myself as have only just found this site (am a regular on the Obesity Help Lapband Forum but new to this one). Being banded on 22nd May and very excited. WLS is not as common in the UK as it seems to be in the US (although as I am going on dedicated forums I am probably getting a biased sample!) so I don't really have anyone to chat to that is being "done" in England.

Hi Kate, Welcome to LBT! There is a thread on this site for UK based bandsters (but don't forget about us Yanks either!):

Good luck with your surgery!

Hi Kate.

Welcome to LBT. Nice to have you aboard. There are so many nice people on here from all over the world. Good luck on your surgery. It will be here before you know it.

Again, welcome and good luck!!!!!!
