Hi Everyone!

Hi! I'm in Tuscaloosa and going to be banded this Wednesday (09/24/08) by Dr. Bilton at DCH in Tuscaloosa - and very excited! Any advice from the experts here in Alabama that have been banded? I have really enjoyed LapBandTalk - wish they had told us about this in all the classes/support groups that I attend. To get ready for this new experience. It has been so far a really good journey - believe it or even the full liquid diet I have been doing for the past 10 days! lol Thanks for starting the "Banded In Alabama" looking forward to getting to know everyone! :girl_hug:

Congratulations on this beginning of a happier, healthier life! The band is a tool that will help you accomplish the goals you have for weight loss. The forum is a great place to get advice, info about diet and recipes, and answers to any of your questions.

If you are experiencing something, there are probably several people on the forurms who have experienced the exact same thing, and they can be a big help to you.

Keep us posted on how everything is going!
