Hi Debbie, Welcome! I had to look up weight of a stone......so you can tell I'm in the US not UK. Congratulations on your great success first time around and the baby! When do you get your new band? I am waiting for a surgery date -- quite eager to begin. Best wishes!

Hello we'll done for coming back

welcome back to the next chapter of your new journey.... i am reminded of a quote "Life is what happens when we're busy making plans".....John Lennon

the past is past....now it's all forward movement... i had to look up the conversion for the weight of a stone as well....lol... I am not banded yet and my projected surgery date is feb/march 2014 but i live in an excitement everyday anticipating the emergence of that woman that has no weight issues.... and my friend i see you in my dream as well... you can do it..... and your not alone...

Hi Debbie

I am from the UK too. I live in Shrewsbury about 60 miles from Birmingham.

I had my op on 15th August at Dolan Park.

Congratulations on your baby, and for your next weight loss journey.... you have done it before so you can do it again.

Good Luck
