Quick intro
Just wanted to say "hello" and introduce myself. New member to the site, looking forward to a better atmosphere here than at the last home. Was sleeved on 05/25/16, down 119lbs. from starting weight, current weight 185lbs.. Shooting for 175lbs.. If I can ever be of any help, feel free to message me (be glad to pass any info along the I have learned so far). Looking forward to getting to know the site and members.
WOW!! 119 pounds is amazing! Good for you.
ISO ... New "clique" members. You must be kind, warm, welcoming, honest, intelligent, and have a sense of humor. The words "shamed" or "victim" can not be in your regular vocabulary. Sarcasm is welcome (and wanted!), but cruelty is not. You must not be a coddler or a shamer. All members are free to classify themselves as vets, newbies, grasshoppers or anything else they desire.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, puppies, sunsets and taking off my bra as I pull in the driveway. If you are like minded, you are in!
And remember, we are ALL worthy of love, humor, and dignity.
I started a new group here for my old BP friends and any new friends who have a sense of humor. Link to join:

Hey, Roach!
119 pounds, eh? You were serious about this! ;)
What a bloody miracle the sleeve is. I was sleeved 2.5 years ago. Lost 100 pounds and have kept it off for more than a year. Weigh 135 now. :)
Very happy to be here, too.
