City: Glendale State: AZ | I used to live in the Grand Rapids area. I have also lived in Holland, Shelby, Whitehall and Grand Haven. Now I live in HOT and sunny AZ. We just had our first 100° day yesterday. 
I was banded in Sept. '07, I am 58 years old.
I will be in the Grand Rapids area for a wedding this July. Looking forward to the cool temperatures and the GREEN!
Patsy

City: Swartz Creek State: MI | Thank you for responding. It's 5:01 p.m. on Sunday, May 18, 2008. I have to be at the hospital at 5:15 a.m. tomorrow. I am preparing my
"Advance Directives" for my husband to sign. I am not scared yet, I have never had surgery so I wouldn't know what to be scared of. Except, maybe, the pain I will be in afterwards. You are doing great!  I hope I do as well.  As soon as I am able, I will be in touch.

I used to live in Phoenix for 3 1/2 years. Too darn hot! Congratulations on your weight loss. Sounds like you know West MI pretty well. How long will you be in GR for the wedding? Let me know maybe we can get together.

Sally | What area of Phoenix did you live in? We live in NW Glendale near Arrowhead. Yesterday was our first 100° day and today was our first day to reach 110°! It is supposed to cool down to the 80's on Thurs and Friday. We are pretty used to the heat, we were complaining not long ago that it hasn't been hot enough to heat the pool up to 80!
We will only be in GR for about a week. It is my husband's oldest daughter that is getting married. His relatives live out of state and if they can't make it to the wedding (because of health issues) we will also go there for a couple of days (in a neighboring state). So it will be a busy week! No one in his family knows I have had the surgery. They know I have lost some weight, but don't know how...LOL
We used to live in Wyoming, MI near the library.

City: Banded May 20, '08 State: UP of Michigan | wow...that is no good!
Wow Deb...do you go back to your doctor and let him know??? Throwing up everyday is not part of the Lap Band. Something is not right, physically or behaviorially.  Please let your doctor know! Good luck, Christy
