Hi,

I figured I'd jump in and introduce myself.  In March I began the pre op process for the Lap- band. I am excited to hear what other WLS people have experienced.  Yesterday I met with Karen Hixon and all I have left in the process is the stress test and the behavior mod class.  So I am hopeful that I'll be a scheduled sometime late summer early fall.

I am very eager to find out if there are any WLS support groups in the Plattsburgh area.  It's hard to get to Saranac Lake for the support meetings but I believe that success will be easier with support.

Thanks for being here.

Support is a good thing. I started "training" my friends and family before I had the surgery. Telling them not to enable me...don't bring me sugared anything..and the like. They started changing their habits regarding me so that it would be less pressure for me and enable me to succeed. It is very important that everyone you know that cares about you ..helps you do this. I am more than willing to talk about my journey with the RNY surgery and will answer any questions I can and don't hesitate to talk to anyone at the office..they are all wonderful and knowledgeable people.
