Hi there! I was just banded on October 24th of this year. My starting weight was 260 lbs, and I'm trying to lose 110 lbs--I've lost 24 lbs so far! Woo! Hoo! I was banded by Dr. Michael Snyder, in Denver, CO. He's amazing!
I'm 34 (almost 35), and mother of three boys. I stay home with my 3 year old, and I also sell women's clothing on ebay. I love film, music, literature, shopping, fashion, rafting, hiking, camping, the ocean, and more. I'm laid back and enjoy a mellow social life. I'm not into drugs or heavy drinking. I'm also somewhat of a liberal. Go Obama!
I live in Castle Rock, CO, which is between Denver and Colorado Springs. It would be great to find someone nearby, but it's not neccessary. Just hoping to find support from someone that is like-minded and has had a successful journey. Thanks so much!
