loved reading that again! That was just one month before I got my band....

I enjoyed reading that all as well!

Oh wow. How cool was that?

I may have to go back now and read all my early-days posts.

Donali- you are the best :-)

That does bring back memories- and puts it in perspective, doesn't it? It seems like I've been banded my whole life until I read that. It's interesting to see the juxtaposition of my old post with my current weight loss stats.

I was so scared I was going to fail with the band...and here I am with a totally new life because of it. I have a new living arrangement, a new guy (yippeee) and a new direction for my business...all because my success with the band has given me the confidence to take risks and know that I'll be ok.

I love seeing all the posts from the old timers- we were all so new back then!!! We've all been through so much together it fills my heart every time I check in here. The terrible accident that took away Blossom really reminded me how close I feel to all of you here and I just don't know what I would do without any of you.

Donali- I so often think of you and how hard it must be to not have your band, yet your constant presence helping and directing others here is so valuable I'm glad you've had the strength to stay with us. You are such a cheerleader I wonder sometimes who is your cheerleader when you get down. "Just call my name, and you know where ever I am...I'll come runnin'...yeah yeah yeah just to see you again..." I'm serious...you need anything...you know where to find me.

I'll step away from the Karaoke machine now.

I love you guys!

Megan

wow - it's weird to read that....I remember feeling like that too!! The weirdest thing about it is that I was so scared that the band wasn't going to work for me and reading all the posts from the vets. What a difference a year can make. I'm like you Meghan - I feel like I've been banded my whole lie. But it's not that - it's just we have a whole NEW life!!! By the way - does anyone know whatever happened to Leo??
