I have a LapBand Friend. Can she join here too?
Hi Guys,
I have a dear friend of mine (also a gal from Australia downunder) who is a lapbander and on her third lapband after a couple of faillures. We were chatting on the phone the other day and she used to be on a couple of lapbanding sites and has just become so despondent with the banding sites and I was telling her what a fabulous bunch a gals on the OH Lightweights board you all are. I actually don't look or post on any other site at all and haven't done for a long time now.
Would she be allowed to join here being a lapbander?
Cheers
Karin

See, this is why I LOVE THIS BOARD!!!!! Everyone is so willing to help and is accepting of everyone else, which is very rare.

I'm sure your friend would do well in this environment and maybe we can offer her some help and encouragement since she is so down. I know I'm not the only one here who has had a LapBand experience, so this would definitely be a good place for her.
