Hello everyone,

I am a newbie here on this board. I was banded almost 3 years ago and have been near goal for the last 2 years. I say near goal, as the lowest I have got was a 26 bmi.. currently in the high 27 bmi range. I love my band most days(more days than not). I would have never been able to lose and keep the nearly 100 lbs off without it. I am looking for an active board to call home. I recently had a tummy tuck and breast lift about 7 weeks ago and that has helped to complete the body image journey. Anyway, just wanted to stop in and say hello.

Hi Cindy!

Welcome to LBT! We LOVE to hear about success stories and bandsters who have had their bands for several years.

Maybe you can share some pictures on the Before & After thread - if you haven't already.

:]

Oh you MUST post your story and your before and after pics!!! We love good stories around here! PLEEEEEEEASE!!

Cindy, you are doing great. Congrats on the plastic surgery. I can't wait to have mine! Julie

Welcome Cindy! As others have said, post your story and pics! It's so inspiring to hear from those that have succeeded! If you are looking for a place to call home, this is it! This is a fantastic site! The people are the best!
