Hello everyone, I'm a newbie and saw I needed to introduce myself here. I've been here a few times before when I first had my surgery and finally decided to join. I'd like to say thank you to the owners of this site and the members, because you helped me tremendously in the beginning when I first had my surgery even though I wasn't a member with all of the posts for post and pre-op surgery questions. I now refer this sight to anyone who is considering or have been approved for the surgery. I had my surgery 12/08 and have been doing pretty well since, lost approx 60 pounds so far. Look forward to all the information/support I'm sure I will continue to gain from here.

Welcome!! You are doing great. 60lbs is tremendous. Keep up the good work. I was banded 7/30 and have lost 22lbs. I also find this site to be so informative.
