Are there any people in London Ontario who have been banded.

Hi,

I am in London and had my Lap Band March 2007. In many ways I think I feel better than before. Things have been kind of rough for me with the band. I haven't really felt it was a great success and keep hoping that things will improve.

I would love local people to talk to and possibly meet for coffee.

I have a friend in Dorchester that was banded a couple of days after me. We really enjoy getting together to shoot the "band". Hee hee

Take care!

Hi,

I live in London currently. I was banded August 1st in Mississauga by Dr. Cobourn. How do you like it?

Hi There

I am back from a weeks vacation. I stopped over for a fill on my way and now I am at 5.7 cc. Still not right. I called Tammy today in Mississauga and we have scheduled another fill next Tuesday. She said not to get discouraged we will get it. It is discouraging because I am taking the train everytime I have to go and it is a full day trip. I hope my sweet spot it almost feeling sweet. I also feel that the amount of money that I paid for the band I will keep going back until I am 80 if I have to to get it right. I have lost maybe 1 pound since post op which was the beginning of September. Not very good.

Anyways, I would be very interested in getting together for coffee and discuss everyones experiences and maybe we can creat a great London support group. Let me know.

Sheila: I hope you get to sweet soon. I am worried about getting fills. I had 4.2cc in during the surgery and had to have it removed on day 7 after my surgery. What a relief, it was not good being too full. I know that is frustrating getting to Mississauga but going slow is better. I will not be very aggressive with my fills, I don't want another week like that again. Coffee/support group sounds great.

I realize it has been a long time responding to this post. I would like to join one of your coffee's if you still have them to discuss the band. I was banded in September last year and it really hasn't done alot for me to date. I realized finally that I was working it wrong. Anyways if you do get this please let me know. Thanks
