As I was cleaning out my closet for the second time today ( a little bragging} I was thinking of all of you and how much I enjoy this lapband board. Just wanted to let all of you know how much I appreciate all the knowledge, advice and support you have given me. I have made it a little over half way to goal. Dropped from 18-20 to 14 and this board was the first place I started when I saw the lapband advertised on T.V.

Thanks to Telly for helping me out when the gas was under my ribs and killing me to even breath. Thanks to all who gave me support when I was stuck before second fill. Thanks to my e- mail buddies-Pat from Nebreska,

Michelle from Maryland. Thanks to my chat line buddies Alison from Greece and Jucyc from Waco who by the way is going crusing with me next summer. Thanks to Jenna and Elisa for putting this together for us.

Thanks to P'Nut for posting my pictures for me and being my inspiration and keeping me laughing. I hope I have been some support to others as well .Thanks to Barb465,Altina and xelapaul for meeting me for lunch.

Again thanks to all of you for helping me get half way and I would love to meet you all which I will meet some of you next year. Can't hardly wait and you all are in my prayers every night.Oh my god special thanks to Carlene who had me for secert sam. I love all my picture frames.Thanks K@t for putting this together.

Congratulations on your progress!
