:Bunny hi there i just thought that i would introduce my self i am due to be banded late june time.

this is the first time that i haqve been on this forum so thought that i would post to say hi.

I am having to do loads of research now as i was sold on the bpd but my surgeon presented a good case for teh lap band and i am happy with my discission.

Hi Braveheart,

Welcome to LBT!

We have several other UK members here - glad to have all of you

There is tons of information here, so... Happy Reading!

Braveheart, Paula's right about UK members -- they will come out of the woodwork and say hello, I'm certain. Audrey in Scotland and her friend Fiona have lost a total of nearly 400 lbs. since they were banded. Ladiebird is near London, I think. And Scotty, where are you? Anyway, with a June surgery date, you have plenty of time to gather information and get sorted. Welcome!

Yep - I'm in the UK. London. But I'm Scottish by birth. Fife to be exact. Where are you having your surgery? I had mine done by Mr John Rogers, Princess Grace Hospital. Feel free to PM if you would like.
