New here and Hello

Hi Demi,

My name is Debbie and I don't get to respond to a lot of posts but I did want to welcome you to our Bama family. We are a great group and if you're looking for support you have come to the right place. These guys have been here for me time and time again. I'm several years out from surgery but had regained some weight. However, I did learn that the surgery tool still works if you get back to the basics. I'm well on my way to getting back under the 200 mark. It feels great to be a loser.

Blessings,
DebbieDoo
