Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

Hi Julianna -

I'm not banded, but there are a number on this board that are. I'm sure you will find plenty of band specific support here. There is also a lap-band forum, if you are interested.

Welcome to the NC board. We look forward to getting to know you.

Congratulations on your wonderful losses to date.

Wishing you continued success.

Barb
