Smile Starting lap-band process

Hi, I am new here. My name is Lainie and I live in Mississippi......right outside of New Orleans.

I have attended the seminar for the Lap Band procedure and I have my first appointment with the surgeon on Monday. I am very nervous and very excited. Wish me luck!

Welcome to the journey! Being nervous is very normal. Research all you can to know what you need. Read lots and ask lots of questions.

Hi Lainie,
Welcome to this wonderful place. I have learned a lot here. I am not banded yet. I just finished all my testing and will hopefully get a surgery date this week.
Good luck

Amy
