Greetings from somewhere close to the north pole. Not quite! My name is Priscilla and I am betting banded several weeks from now - looking forward to becoming a member of the Bandsters club. Opti-Fast is going to be my new food pal for a while and I am not going to think too deeply about deprivation just yet.:nervous After all, I still have Christmas to eat my way thru. I've been checking out this forum for a month now and it looks like a fun bunch of people with great senses of humour hang out here. Look forward to getting to know more of you and have thoroughly enjoyed my visits so far. I was told that everyone is much friendlier and more responsive if I formally "introduced" myself properly. Okay, ready when you are - fire away!

Welcome Priscilla.

Congrats on your surgery date...you must be so excited this is the beginning of your New life as the New You... I am looking forward to hearing more about you and your progress.

Best wishes

Becky

Your going to be a NORTH POLE HOTTIE!

Keep us posted.

Flabuless - thanks for the reply I am looking forward to "the journey", I hope to "waist" away.:faint:

TracyInks - Dunno about the hottie thing - but hey, if it helps improve the global warming up here, I'm all for it.:biggrin1:

Hi Priscilla, welcome to the lapband forum. You will find great insight here. Hope your surgery goes well. You will do great with your attitude. Good luck.

Welcome Priscilla, I too am from up "north" where its very cold. I will also be doing the opti-fast so we'll have to keep each other going. This is a great place to be, the people are awesome and will answer everything you need to know. See you around.
