Well, I am happy to say I made it safely to the land of bandsters! I am doing well, port site is the only thing really giving me a lot of hurt. I did have to stay two nights in the hospital instead of one, but only because I was too nauseated to keep any liquid in me. But today I feel a lot better than I expected to feel. I'm looking forward to talking to y'all and start dropping the weight!

Congrats and welcome to the lb journey

thank you! How are you doing with everything? I see that you are the same age as me, and have a daughter as well. I need someone my age who understands everything I am going through. Maybe we could be buddies? When were you banded?

I'm doing ok. Better with my second fill and I started going to the gym so hopefully ill start losing more I was banded 5/19/2009 and lost 15lbs. Yeah feel free to email me cmorden06@gmail.com

that's great! When did you start to feel like you could go to the gym? I have had a membership for a year, but only went a few times. I am ready to get started with everything!
