Welcome, Yvonne. Nice to have a fellow-bandster on board!

Do feel free to ask me any band related Qs - the American way is not always our way and it is anyway easier to talk about UK foods etc with a fellow Brit!

Are you self-pay? Or one of the very lucky ones with NHS care? Dolan Park sounds like a private hospital.

Best wishes with your surgery - hope your recovery is as fast as mine was - should be faster with just the one incision, when I was banded 4 1/2 years ago, that wasn't an option!

Highest 290, Banded - 248 Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006. Regain of 28lbs 2013-14. ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,
