Remembering that I was done four years ago and things may have

changed, I had to see an Endocrinologist and Dietician before

being accepted for banding. I also had to have a few blood tests.

Hope that helps.

Fantastic news Lee. I understand your excitement. I reached my first goal of 92 kg which

was two thirds excess weight and have set another to 80 kg. I have just of 8 kgs to go

(although I intend to enjoy the festive food over Christmas so that may go up a little.)

I do wish you luck !
