Need to ask Questions.

I live in GA and I am tired of being overweight....I have been thinking about the Lap Band, but I have no idea what Dr.? Anything...can somebody help me?

Welcome Trina. You have come to the right place to get answers. Where in Georgia do you live? You usually have to start by attending a lapband seminar hosted by your local hospital and doctors.

Hi Trina! This is a good place to start for information. There are a lot of Georgians here that will be happy to help you. Maybe some of us can help you out a little more once we know where you live. Good luck!!

Hi everyone!

I had my first fill today and things went great. The nurse said I was doing very well. I've lost a total of 38.5 lbs. I have a 10cc band and she only put 2cc's in it. She said she likes to start out with a small amount and evaluate every two week to see if I need an adjustment. The fill was slightly painful but not too terribly bad. I'm excited to get to start eating solids in a few days (I'm on liquids for 3 days and then I'll progress to solids). Thanks everyone for all the support.

Pamela,

Concrats!! Sounds like you are doing great.

This is on a totally different subject, but I think I told yall that we are in the process of adopting a little boy. We got him when he was 2 months old. He is 11 months old now. We will finalize his adoption on Monday. Since we got him we have become foster parents. Our social worker called this afternoon and we are going to get a 2 week old little boy on Monday afternoon!!!! WOW!! We just completed our certification. Was not planning for one this little this quick. I am only 1 week post op and I will have 2 who can't walk. God does have a sense of humor.

Feeling both overwhelmed and blessed!!!

Renewedhope,

Congrats on the adoption and getting such a little one. I can tell that you have a passion for children and that's wonderful. You're going to be fine, I can't imagine having two that small. Enjoy it while you can, they grow up sooo fast. Cangratulations again and Good Luck!
