Hello everybody.

I'm just starting out on this LapBand venture and am hoping for some help in where to get started. I'm also not familiar with forums, so please tell me if I should post something to the wrong area.

Since this looks to be the introductions area, I'll start posting my questions next time I'm on...as soon as I figure out where to post them.

In the meantime, hello. I've been reading through some posts and everybody just seems so nice and helpful, I just had to sign up and be a part of it.

A brief bit about myself: I have at least 80 - 90 lbs to lose (I haven't weighed myself lately...the scale and I just don't see eye-to-eye sometimes). I am a computer support analyst (I know, right? I can fix a computer, but I can't forum? Weird, huh?). I'm married and have two boys...the baby is a Senior in high school (finally!) this year and stands at 6'1". I live on the West side (far North Rio Rancho). My husband likes to say we live just South of Santa Fe. We have two cats: Emma and TJ (funny, but their both overweight too. Emma at 11 lbs and TJ at a furry 13.5 lbs). Not too much else to tell and still keep it "brief", so I'll save it for another time/place.

I hope we get a chance to chat some time.

Welcome to LBT! Just dive in and ask your questions, there is a wealth of info here. If you need any help with the forum, you can pm me or a moderator. Have a great day!
