Hello,

My name is Kelton May, I am a 29 year old male with a starting weight of 317lbs. and a goal of 225lbs. I had my surgery performed on Friday Jan. 9th 2009 by Dr. Chang in Victoria Tx. I am a Corpus Christi resident. I work for the Department of Defense, rebuilding crash damaged and battle damaged hellicopters for the Army, Navy, and the Airforce. I am a 8 year veteran of the US Navy and am super excited to have found this board. Looking forward to posting questions and hopfully answering a few as well.

Thanks again.

Kelly

I am from the CC area as well. I live in Aransas Pass and started seeing Dr McDaniel at Citizens Bariatric but then switched Doctors because of $$ and insurance issue. I was banded Nov 24th in McAllen and have lost about 30 pounds so far and I am loving my band. This is a great website that is full of info. Good Luck to you!!!!

Hello and congratulations on your band.

I live about an hour and a half south of Houston but will be banded in CC on Feb 3 with Dr. Griffin. I'm really excited but nervous all at the same time. I start my pre-op diet on Monday which isn't to bad. Just a low carb to no carb diet.

My starting wgt. is 271 which I hope to loose down to about 165-155 somewhere in that range.

Again congratulations. Tam
