Hi everyone, my name is Cyntha. I just joined today. At my highest weight I weighed 430 lbs. I am currently 256 lbs. I had the lapband surgery on 3-11-09, and have lost 85 lbs since then. The surgery has been a good tool, but I still struggle every day to keep on track.

    Welcome, to mfp. I just wanted to let you know that I've struggled for years with losing weight (I'm 4 11 and weigh 165) and I've in the last 8 days been on here tracking my calories and I've also started going to Curves and I weighed myself yesterday and I've lost 3lbs. Its a great start and the support here helped me so much... I just wanna keep going. Good luck to you and your weight loss journey!!!
