Hi everyone.

I'm new to this forum though not new to banding. I was banded in January 2012. Since that time, I've lost 70 lbs. I have another 50 or so lbs that I'd like to lose.

I live in Canada and was banded in Canada. I was a regular on another WLS community but I found the site too restrictive - we weren't able to vent or express our frustrations. The company would block the postings. I believe it is when you are frustrated that you need the most support from others.

My weight loss has stalled/slowed over the last few months. I feel like I'm back on track again but you know how easy it is to fall off the wagon. It's time to get this weight off now, once and for always.

Anyway, that's a little about me. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Glad to have you on this forum, we all need to vent somtimes but the great people on here keep it in perspective and help us through it, no need to come down hard on anyone we are all in the same boat ( so too speak) hugs and welcome.

Welcome, you have come to the right place. Vent away.

Chat away and ask away.

Good Luck
