GOOD LUCK!!! I was just wondering - how did you decide which surgery to go with?magnoliamouth <karenostrom@...> wrote: I think that is way cool, that you are taking someone with you tocheck it out. Think about how much confidence that will give them.I have a friend here, Florida, that really wants the lap band. inDecember, she waivered back and forth. My gastric is being done inJan 10 and she wanted the lap band to be done the same time I wasgetting mine done. But then she chickened

out.I told her it was just going to cost her more because if I have to goback out there with her, she has to pay my air fare. I think her fears is: she is not yet ready to give up some of herfoods. __________________________________________________

Man, itÂ’s weird to me that right around the corner somebody is going through

the exact same thing I am and that we traveled to another country to do it.

Well, is pretty much putting this together, but so far we are all

within a few miles of each other. Is any Saturday good for you?
