Hi joe.

great job. Wow I can't wait 

Hi everybody I'm Kasey. I live in Lansing. My surgery date is actually today (April 15th) and I'm leaving here in about an hour to go to sparrow hospital. My doctor is Dr. Obinwanne and I go through sparrow weight management. Glad to meet ya all.

Good luck and keep us posted

Hello Everyone, 

Leslie 42, Millington, No surgery date yet; talk of end of May, still have psych eval & pre-op, Dr. Farhan.

Hi all.  My name is Karen and live in Ann Arbor.  Saw my surgeon yesterday, will be having my lap band removed, no date yet.  Then he will do a new surgery (gotta find a way to get insurance to accept that one) for either Bypass or Sleeve.  I had hoped for sleeve or DS but he doesn't do DS, and I don't think anyone does at U of M (Stacey, that is for you, you had asked me).

I think he is going to want Bypass, he voiced that one. Either way, I have decided I don't care which as long as I have one or the other to get this weight off!  I will do whatever it takes.  So happy he shares the opinion that the band is a failed method, that many had success with it but many more did not.  Can't wait to get this thing out of me!

Hi all, Wendy from Grand Rapids. Just went to the info seminar today at Spectrum. DH and I are hoping to get the sleeve 

Hi There!  

I am an old-timer here.  Been on the board for over 8 years now.  Got a lot of information on here to help me plan for my surgery.

I live in Pinckney

I have 6 kids (ages, 10, 11, 14, 15, 23 & 24)

I have 3 grand kids (ages 7, 3 & 9 months)

Had my RNY done on November 16, 2006 (just a week before Thanksgiving, wow, but I did it)

Surgery was done at Hurley in Flint by Dr. Jamal Farhan!

I honestly don't think I would be alive today had I not had my surgery.
