Need a band buddy

Hi! My tentative banding date is May 18. It would be nice to have someone who has gone through it to lean on.

    I'm 2 years and 8 months out. I've lost 121 pounds and have had a couple of complications (gastritis). I am willing to 'buddy' up with you if you like. I'm no expert but I know the encouragement and help I needed when I started or hit a plateau.

    Let me know.

    Thanks,
