takin lapband for a ride

really enjoyin the decision i made to get lapband. it lifted that dark cloud off of me and opened my eyes to a better way of livin. each week i notice something new bout myself, or can do something i couldnt before. along with that extra lil pep in my step. and recently was put on my doctors website (www.drfrankfelts.com). still dont really know what to think bout that, but ill get used to it. so i guess im just gonna chill and enjoy the ride, and see what happens.
