NEWME2008

Hey everyone I am also for the Bronx.. I was banded November 2008. That was a very exciting day for me. Needless to say the band did not work for me. I am NOT upset a little sad at times because I had set goals and dreams. I am still working with my doctor to see other options. I have not been on this site in a very long time and the only reason why I can back today is I need a little support from my lap band family. I hope everyone is doing good with there journey and hope to be talking to any of you soon…. Dawn

And my weight tickler needed to be updated and I wanted to changed the picture were do I paste that? If I sound dazed and confused its because I am..:w00t::wink2::thumbs_up::crying: Pleas help me!!!!!!:frown::crying::cool2:
