1rod47 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Hey Sandra, Welcome aboard. There are lots of friends here and tons of info from them. Take your time, look around and just make yourself at home. Everyone has been banded, thinking about getting banded or waiting to be banded. As for me, I was banded in mexico 09/26/08. Doing good but can't wait to get on regular food again. Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julieburns Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 :lb5: Welcome Sandra!! I was banded 6/4/08 in Mexico. Most of the folks, but certainly not all on this forum were banded by Dr. Ortiz in mexico. I love to have others who have not gone to him because they give us a different perspective on some things. Just jump in post and reply, that's all you have to do!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
