Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor College Student / 2 years banded...

Hi all!

I live between Dallas TX and Baltimore MD for college.

I'm 19 years old. I currently weigh 170 pounds. My lowest weight was (since I got my band)160, but I got my band emptied and gained about 10 pounds back.

I was banded Dec 2007, and I lost almost 70 pounds, but I still have about 30 left. Ever since I started college I have pretty much fallen off the "band" wagon. I'd like an online buddy that I can talk to daily through email or IMs on AIM that will support me and give me tips and strength. In return I can offer the same. Please help me take full potential of my band!

I'm ready to do this again
