Wow! How fantabulous! I am so proud of you! I'm certain that Dr. P will be proud of you no matter what you weigh when you see him.

Call me when you're ready! I can't wait to learn more about your journey!

Topic: RE: Realize band forums
There's also a lapband forum.  It's a little more active.  Realizers and Lappers participate.  Doesn't really matter -- it's still an adjustable gastric band.

Topic: Realize band forums
 Just a reminder to the newly banded and/or new to this site.  There is a separate board for Realize band patients.  Go to forums - scroll down to Realize band and join us on our journey.  

Sometimes it helps to talk to people who have had the same surgery and are experiencing the same symptoms and/or problems.

Topic: Funny Taste
Hey all.... I have a question... I was banded back in Oct of 2007.  I have recently come across a funny thing... every once in awhile, I get a funny taste in my mouth... almost as if I had lotion on my lips and licked my lips... but this is not the case... Could there be a problem with my band?
Thanks,
K
