New Here! Getting ready to change!

[MissMom24 2]

Hi There~

I am happy that I found this site. I have been researching the lap band for over a year now and am hoping to have my financing withing the next week or so. I am 99% sure that I am going to go with Dr. Kirshenbaum here in Colorado. I am anxious about the change, but more than ready! Like everyone, I have already paid for the band with all the different diets that I have tried. I am ready for some permanent success!

I am a SAHM to 4 kids (3 boys and a girl) and I know tha I am the "fat mom" and am tired of embarrasing my kids. My goal will be 140.

I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello!

Hi Brandy, Nice to meet you. I am going to Dr Kirshenbaum for my banding on October 16th. There is a thread that is going with Dr K's patients and there are several people that live in the Denver area and get together once a month for lunch.. You are invited to come on over to the thread and meet a nice group of people. It is under the "Doctors and Hospitals" heading and it starts out "Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum". The thread is over 100 pages long and very friendly... Good luck to you and hope to see you at the thread..
