kll724 3,055 Posted November 30, 2009 Hi Linda, I, also, was banded on Oct. 30. I haven't lost a lot of weight since my banding. But, I have lost 46 lbs since my pre-op diet started back in April. I was one of the folks that had to diet for 6 months before my insurance company would approve me. Nice to meet you. I am happy to have another person banded on the same day as me to take this venture and new life turn with. Please feel free to contact me whenever you want to talk.

LindaInWa 0 Posted November 30, 2009 Thanks for the welcome ladies. It is nice to meet someone on the same day! That's very cool. I go for my first fill tomorrow. Hoping it's not painful. Linda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
