♏i®anda 1 Posted June 14, 2013 I am in Bham and had my surgery with Dr. Christopher at Shelby on April 23. Down 27 pounds! Finally healing and feeling better. I am in Tuscaloosa, Al. I am talking to Shelby now about having surgery. I'm still in the process of getting all my info together. I haven't done a diet consecutively for six months but have other health problem that are well documented. Wondering if you know anything that can help me. Thanks ♏i®anda 1 GreekGirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuzieQ - I see we have the same surgeon. I am still in the pre-op stage of satisfying insurance requirements. I would love to get together sometime. I know there is a support group through the Drs office, but I am not a fan of formal things like that. I live in Madison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
