Hi, I'm Betty from Georgia. I have 6 grown children and live in a household of 4 cats and 3 dogs. My doctor does the fobi pouch. I knew nothing about it until I met him. Then I did alot of research and now believe it is the best of all the WLS. When I've talked to others from this site I've found many who were not sure what kind of WLS they had. It surprised me. The more common question is if the surgery would be open or a lap. So maybe there are those out there with the fobi pouch that just don't know.

Hello Marni and welcome to the group!! This is a very new board and we arent very active, but maybe if more folks post we will have more activity. So how are you doing?? Tell us a little about yourself. How about everyone saying a little about yourselfs?? Anyone have any suggestions as to how to get our group more active??

I just wanted to say hello

Sorry String I'm always here but yesterday I went to the Fobi office because they filmed a commercial. It was too fun!! There aren't many fobi folks on OH, We are starting to get more here as this is a very new board! Here is the [email protected] let me know if you have any problems getting to them and I will put you in touch with the moderator. If you have any questions PLEASE feel free to ask here or there we are everywhere!! LOL I had my Fobi surgery over four years ago, you can read my profile and Jaimie just had hers, Kim had hers over five!! Welcome to our group I hope you chose to support both groups!!

Hi Fobi fans!!!! I have finished mt pre ops with Dr. Fobi and very excited to get the surgery. I am going to go to a bypass support group closer to my home, but I heard Dr. Fobi has an on line support group I would really like to partisipate in. Can anyone tell me where do I sign up? And if you have ant tips or sugestions please PM me at Thank you, and I can't wait to be on the loosing side with you all.
