Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor live in CT, banded May 08, 50 years old



Recommended Posts

I was banded on May 21st by Dr. Craig Floch in Norwalk, CT. I've been doing really well and have lost 50 lbs so far, however, now I seem to have hit a plateau. I also have lots of questions about fills, side effects etc. and would really love a buddy/mentor...

There are two threads you might like. "I am here to help" under Buddies/Mentors and "Hey, 50& over gang, we have a new spot". Everyone is really helpful. Come join us!

Hi Jane Crane,

Are you still looking for a buddy?

I also live in CT (Hartford area).

I was banded on 2/4/08.

I would love to hear your progress and can answer questions that you may have. We can compare notes.

Let me know and we can chat. :cool2:

Hi Jane,

Please PM me.

We can then decide to chat via e-mail or chat by phone.

I do a lot of typing being an Admin. so phone is my number one choice.

I just get so tired of typing sometimes even though I do type 60 wpm.

I have met other people thorugh the suppport groups and on-line and enjoy talking to other people that have been banded because I haven't really told my family and friends.

My mother, husband and 3 friends know and that is it.

I have lost 100 pounds so far and things have slowed down now since I only have about 25-30 more pounds to go.

Can't wait to hear about your lap band journey.

Looking forward to talking witn you. smile.gif

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
