Hi Trudi. I'm in Lansing and got banded on April 28th. I can be a buddy with you, but I'll warn you that I'm still new!

hi trudi. I am at one year with the lap band. Email me anytime for thoughts and advice. Hang in there.

I know that you told me you went through Sparrow. I am getting banded on June 13. I'd love to have you as my mentor, since we are both from Lansing. I am a 49-year old woman, single mother of two. Tell me more about you? Perhaps we will see each other at the Sparrow support groups. Do you go? How do we email each other outside of this forum?

Hi Trudi,

My name is Marilyn. I live in Roseville, MI which is a suburb of Detroit. I got my band in August of last year. I've lost about 95 lbs. and am so happy with the band. It has changed my life already and I'm not even to goal yet! :Angel_anim: I'd be happy to share my story and be of support to you.
