Hey Ash.... Glad your back! I missed you! For everyone else: I am Cindee... Had my surgery 4/24/06, ten months ago. I am almost at goal, need to lose 5 more lbs. The year has been awesome! Frances is my angel too, and she hasn't been on this board much at all lately, but hopefully, that will change soon. My life has changed in so many ways since surgery. I have a lot more energy now and am excited to be living life to its fullest.

It's me......Lindy I am almost four years post-op. Lost to below goal and now I am right at goal. Had my ups & downs but am SO happy that I had GBS. Married my OH flame on May 19, 2006 and now live in LA, but I am an AL girl.

Hiya Ash ... mama angel checking in here I miss you and love you bunches too. Let's see. I'm 2.5 years out of lap band surgery and comfortable with my slow, but sure loss. I'm currently looking for people to meet and refresh OHLA for meetings in Baton Rouge and the Denham Springs area. Anyone need a workout buddy? I have some free passes to a new gym called Contours Express that's just for women. The owner is Zinda LeBlanc, a nurse and healthcare expert, not to mention the spouse of my beloved SupaDoc Karl LeBlanc. Anybody wanna join me next week for a workout, shoot me a PM or email. I also game for cycling, tennis and walking in the woods or around a lake. Ashleigh, call me. I've gone through some tough times lately and I know how important good friends can be at a time like this. Love ya .... onward! Frances

Hijack..... Hi Frances Hugs! Lindy
