hello lap band friends

Frist time posting on this board Thanks for leting me know of this board work-n-progress funny i dont feel like a vet it has gone by so fast

Wecome Mike great to see you paddled over here to the island!! Work must have kept her beam of light on in the lighthouse!!! It will feel just like home in no time at all... and its funny ,I really dont feel like a "Vet' either!

I always feel like "veteran" equal "wisdom", and I certainly don't feel like I have much of that lately! LOL Welcome to the island Mike! How is your wife doing? I think about the two of you often.

Welcome, Mike! Glad to see you! Hope your wife, is faring well. I still pray for her. I sure feel like a Vet, as a matter of fact, at everything! ha

Mike, Good to see you! How is Sabine?

Hey Mike, welcome to our "island".

Hi Michael, welcome to the board. How long have you had your band? I will be celebrating my 6th anniversary Jan. 22nd. Time flies when you are on the maintenence train. Mona

Welcome, Mike. Do tell -- how ARE you coping with your band these days? Have you even gone back for any regular visits with the surgeon? What about your weight loss? I honestly feel a board like this would really benefit someone like you. Just let us know what we can do to help. You've made references to not eating well so let's step up and help you. Do you need recipes or ideas or have you given up the band way of eating completely? Hopefully you've stopped eating most of the hospital food (and, if not, you've got some decent choices to pick from). Lori

Welcome Mike! I'm happy you joined us on the island...

warm (((((HUGS))))) for you and your wife Mike! Welcome..and Happy 2008 CN
