Hello all,

I just registered for this board. I've been using obesityhelp.com and the folks are terrific.

I was banded on 4/30/04 and have lost 33 pounds thus far. I feel great and have made several friends and received tremendous advice on the other board, so I thought I would give this one a shot.

Just a note to give you all a big Texas HOWDY!

Hi Keith, welcome! You're doing great, and I hope you'll stick around to share some of your experiences. We don't have enough men on this board!

Hiya Keith!

You're right Alex... we do need more menfolk around!

Welcome again...

Hi, Keith, guess you're trying to exercise in these hot Texas evenings, also. Well, maybe we'll lose a few extra lbs. by sweating in this humidity. Where were you banded? Best of luck!

Thanks for the kind welcomes! I was banded by Dr. Hamn. And yes, no doubt this Texas Heat has claimed a bit of my belly!

Hi Keith and Welcome

You are going to enjoy this board. Many people here have great knowledge of the band..there is also a great ammount of support!

And when you want to laugh just look for one of Delarla's posts, she is always good for a chuckle or two. Congrats on your success so far. It's nice to see a man here, there isin't too many around here.

Welcome Keith! I noticed your username, so may I add Hook 'Em Horns to my greetings? Maybe we can burn off a few calories by yelling and jumping while watching the College World Series this afternoon on the TV! Just no snacking!

You got that straight!!! Hook ' Baby!!!
