I'm a city girl, banded in June. There's a Social Group for New York Bandsters you can access through "user CP".. Its not used much, but would be nice to build up a group there.

Hello fellow NYers out there. I live on the UWS! I had my surgery 4 years ago and fell into a bad downward spiral and am now getting back up and really starting over! Would love to have a group to get together and support each other? Any of the NYers also single? Add that to the mix...not an easy place to be in.

I was born, raised and work in the Bronx although I live in NJ...hoping to get banded this summer either in July or August and I second that "scared as hell" notion!

Hi, I live in Manhattan and would like to talk to a few locals (either via email, phone or in person) who have had the surgery. Please send me a private message if you wouldn't mind talking with me about your experience. I would especially like to talk to anyone who had a BMI under 30 when they had the surgery. My BMI is 28.7 and I'm 30 years old.

Also, if you had the surgery anywhere in the New York City area, or surrounding areas, would you mind emailing the thread with where you had it done? I'm researching local doctors.

Thanks so much!

I'm in Long Island (about 15 minutes outside of the 5 boroughs), single and been banded for 4 years this month.

Question.....Have you ever told someone you were dating that you have a LapBand? If so, How long did you wait to tell them and what was their reaction? (This might need to be its own thread).
