Hi everyone!

I'm from Blackpool! And I'm a newbie to this site so, please bear with me.

I got banded on 19th January 2008 in Birmingham. Had to go private as our health trust doesn't do banding on NHS up here. That really sucks.

I lost 10lbs on the preop diet (Milk and yoghurt) then I lost another 6lbs in the 1st week after being banded. Not lost anything in my 2nd week but 'm not giving up that easily!

Glad to hear from all of you.

J9:rolleyes2:

at my appointment in Liverpool this week I got talking to a young woman from Blackpool who had her op on the NHS.

Hi Christine8.

Well that's weird. My GP said that there wasn't funding for this type of surgery. So I'm not sure whether he was telling me porkies now! But anyway, I've had it done and I'm really happy. But thanks for letting me know.

Cheers J9:rolleyes2:

I would love to get together with some people who have been banded or are thinking about it who live in Cambridgeshire.

I know its a big county, but I am prepared to travel as I really would like to give and recieve support... even if its just once a month or something.

I was banded in FEBRUARY 2007 but it went horribly wrong. It was a horrible, frightening time and I wish I had had fellow bandits to talk to in person.

I have been re-banded in NOVEMBER 2007. Everything seems to be going well now and I would love to share experiences!

If you are in Cambridgeshire, please message me privately and we can arrange details and things. I dont want to broadcast where I live etc, and I am sure no one else does either, but I am here waiting for some buddies if anyone feels like it.

Thanks for reading!

Bunny
