BigMomma 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I have a Facebook but my fb friends don't know that I'm about to be banded. If you're still interested in being friends send me a private message on lbt. - Valerie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
destin2fly19 0 Posted November 17, 2009 There is a really great group on fb called Lap Band Divas and some of those women and men also use lbt. I would check out the group. It has been a great resource for me. I'm not going public with this process so it's a great way for me to have Facebook friends that share in my experience without actually making them friends that may make comments that reveal my journey. :w00t: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pipedoc 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I am on FB alot, but 90% of my FB friends do not know of the band. I have simply called my weightloss "the genisis project" since Genisis is the begining. The importaint people know and everyone else I just as soon not deal with them on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted November 17, 2009 Yes I am on Facebook also. Pretty much everyone on FB knows I’m either losing weight in some way or that I have had WLS. It doesn’t bother me if anyone knows or not, everyone there is super supportive and is very happy for me. I am also in the LapBandDivas group. I don’t check in a whole lot but I do have many friends on my Facebook that are also members here. If anyone wants to send me friend request, please PM me for my email address. Thanks!

ParrotheadCathy 0 Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) I'm on Facebook but, frankly, a large portion of my friends are parrot heads and my page reflects that. Musicians, parties, invitations to parrot head events, comments about stuff at parrot head events. But I always welcome new friends! I'm just warning about the parrot head stuff so you don't think you stumbled into anything crazy, LOL. Catherine R.

HeatherO 7 Posted November 24, 2009 I am on FB as well and have many friends that are on this site as well. However, I don't talk about banding on FB and unless people know me from here, they don't know I am banded. If you would like to connect on FB just send me a PM :0) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
