Hello

February 13, 2005

I am scheduled to have surgery on March 7th at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston. I have completed all of the necessary prerequisites: psych eval, orientation meeting, sleep study, meeting with nutritionist. I will have a final meeting with Dr. Lautz on the 24th and will then start liquids.< /p>

I have been overweight for many years but have always felt good. In the last eighteen months or so, I don't feel good. I am clumsy, lathargic and depressed...time to intervene in my own life.

Looking forward to joining you bandsters.

Jane

Jane, you have a wonderful life waiting to unfold when you get your band! You will be amazed at how much better you'll feel...physically and just as important- mentally! How much weight would you like to lose? Look forward to "talking" with you on LBT. Best of luck to you!
