New bander in Va

[Mechbandster 0]

Been hovering in this forum for a couple of months, just felt I should join today. I was banded on Jan 30. Had no complications or pain. I'm already on mush/soft foods because the doc said I was doing so good. Lost 32lbs since the pre op diet until today. Feel really good and already have lots more energy.

Mechbanster, welcome and congrats on your weight loss! Bravo!

What part of VA? I live in Spotsylvania and was banded in Richmond.

I'm just outside of Richmond in Mechanicsville. Got my surgery at St. Marys with the same group as your (Shroder).

Don't you love them? I'm going there Friday. A friend of mine is going with me to ask a few questions. I'm hoping she'll get banded there too.
