Meet and Greet?

I think it is OK. I feel like you have been banded as long as I have been because you have been so successful. Have you made an appointment to see Dr. Brader? I haven't. I am to nervous - have to lose the 7 pounds I gained before I do anything.

Beth, Thanks for the kind words. It does feel like forever since I've been banded! I haven't made an appt. to see Brader and I probably won't at this point..it is just simply too far. I have developed a repor with Dr. Boe and I really like him alot. I have an appt. with him on the 11th and am debating whether to get another fill or not. As far as your stupid seven pounds..you should be kinder to yourself! Seven pounds is nothing and think about what would've happened had you not had your band!!! You looked terrific at your last appt. and I know that those pounds plus all the others will come off!!! I have every confidence in you!!!!
