Sorry for the delayed response. I'm new to the boards and a couple days after I posted, my computer went down during a storm.

hi, welcome.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Glad your computer is back up and running.

Do you have the lapband or are you researching it at this point? Do you have any questions?

I'm no expert but I'd be glad to help in any way I can.

Welcome & good luck.

I still haven't gotten my computer fixed at home - I'm just using my work computer over my lunch.

I do not have the lapband, but I do have an appointment in November.

That was the soonest they could get me in.

However, I did fill out all the paperwork they sent me so if there is a cancellation, my appointment will move up.

Good Luck SoccerMom!

I had to wait several months myself. Some clinics talk about patients having a "Last Meal". But I think the hardest part of the extended wait for me was feeling like I had to go on some sort of Farewell to food Tour! Honestly though I can't say there is one item I ate in the run-up to the band that I either can't eat now or just plain don't want to anymore.

Again good luck and glad you found this site. Its been a real blessing to me to have such a large community of fellow bandsters.
