Hello all -

I am a banded Mainer (Mainah....) Where from? I'm in So. Portland. Banded last November and avid reader of the "Slow Losers" thread - yes, slow weight loss, but NOT ONE REGRET!!

Welcome!

Hi Kbzz - Dr Cobean was my surgeon - you will have a good experience with the folks at the Bariatric Center....Good luck!

I can tell you that I got my PCP referral in Dec 05, had my first appointment with Dr. Cobean in March 06, started working on the "requirements", signed my surgical consent in May 06, saw two or three surgical dates come and go (thanks to Aetna), and finally got banded in Nov. 06 - slow weight loss, VERY Slow - but absolutely not a single teeny regret - I am so grateful for this "tool"!
