Hi! I am new to this site :)

Hello everyone. I am new to this site. I read what members have posted and sure appreciate all the information and experiences shared here. I am in the process of getting a surgery date with Dr. Kuri. I am looking at Nov/08 if possible. I should find out soon and am very excited about getting the lap band surgery. I met Shirley in P.A. when she gave a presentation and am working with her and her husband in arranging everything with my surgery. I am a diabetic and need to get the weight off for my health and b/c I need to be here to raise my children and I hope, one day, spend time with my grandkids :-) Nice to meet everyone.

Hi Patty!! Welcome to the site!! Not much activity here though! I am scheduled with Dr. Kuri on November 8th as well!! Where do you live? I live in Annaheim. It would be great to have a fellow Canadian there with me as well as a fellow Saskatchewanian (?) Write soon or e-mail me directly at [email protected] (my work e-mail) Elaine Frerichs
