voiceomt2002 4 Posted October 16, 2008 A friend recommended this site, and I'm still feeling my way around. Thought I'd say Hi. I'm at the point where they're poking, prodding, scoping, and shrinking my head. (grin) Maybe they'll let me know when I'll have surgery next month.

voiceomt2002 4 Posted October 16, 2008 Whoops. (Brainless newbie moment) I've not been banded yet. My doctors are Drs. Cywes and Baptista at the Jacksonville Weight Loss Center. I've made my appointments with the nutritionist, fitness trainer, labs for bloodwork, imaging center for x-ray and EKG, and my appointment with the shrink is next month. I'm not sure what the Introduction thing wants me to say about websites and such. I started a blog called the Fat Frog Diary (http://fatfrogdiary.blogspot.com) Be warned. I don't censor my language and I can get rather pithy. What can I say? I'm a professional writer. Polite and bland words were expunged from my vocabulary by my editors years ago. I started the blog way back in May when I decided to go for lap-band surgery. I'm pleased to say that my PCP was with me all the way from the moment I told her I wanted to do this, bless her. Well, I think I'll toddle off to the Pre-op forum now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
