Hey Everyone. :wink2:

I'm twenty-five and was banded March 25th 2010- I'm quickly approaching seven months post-op- and completely blown away by how quickly time has flown by. I am looking for some support and WLS friends. I have recently undergone port revision surgery as well (September 30th 2010) due to my port healing at a severe tilt- fills were done fluoroscopically every time, and so to eliminate that my surgeon reset my port, and took away some excessive scar tissue, I am still healing from that; I'm very open to answering any question anyone of you may have, so please contact me if that be the case.

Anyway, here is my quick hello, and again... I'm looking for some new WLS friends! I'm still trying to figure out my way around this site, but I'll get it!

My stats are posted below, I am 5'7" 1/2 tall. (Basically 5'8"!) I started this journey at 325lbs and am as of today 254lbs. A total loss of 71lbs in 29 weeks. My "goal weight" is incredibly rough, I truly have no idea what 160lbs looks like, or even feels like... but it is within a healthy BMI; So, that's what's where it's set for now, who knows what new goal may come out of it once I reach 160! ;] 94lbs to go-

... I'm chasing change, losing half of "me" - while gaining so much more! <3

Congrats on your progress despite the difficulties you've run into along the way... I couldn't imagine reaching a healthy BMI, but three years with the band have helped me realize that dream. I lost half of me... you can do it too! Welcome, and good luck.

Welcome and congrats on your weight loss this far! That's phenomenal!

Remember to keep us all updated on your months to come.
