Hi there! My name is Amy and I'm 21 years old. I'm a college student and I'm ready to be healthy. I'm looking to lose 200 pounds. This is my first day on the site and I need some new friends for support. Whether you are just getting started like me or if you are on your way to your goal, I would love to support you on your journey and learn from your as well.

    Welcome! My screen name is Domika03 but my name is Fran. I'm 47 (damn, I'm old), and had LB surgery on Aug 17th. It's been quite an interesting journey thus far. Lots of good support here, and on lapbandtalk.com.

    Welcome!! I would bet that most people are on here for a safe and healthy journey to better living. I have been on here for a few weeks and love it. The wonderful sharing and kindness from others is great. You have a question, they are quick to help you out, even if it is just motivation that you need!!

    Good luck on your quest!
