Hi Everyone,
I thought i would introduce myself. I am Erica, Mom of 3 kids. I have been banded since Jan 2011 and have lost about 57 pounds since the band has been in place. I hope that being on here tracking all of my movements and eating habits help me in losing the last 54 pounds.

    Welcome. This is an awesome place. I've been banded since July 09 and on here about 5 months or so. Awesome place to connect with others that are on a journey too. Awesome challenges, groups/etc. :-)

    Great to meet you, Erica! My best freind is considering the lap-band and we are going to a weight loss surgery seminar this Saturday (I want to be able to be as supportive & knowledgeable as possible since we used to typically do our 'bad' eating together). I would love to be able to hear more about your experience with it & possibly get tidbits & advice for her here and there. I hope you won't mind if I send you a friend request :flowerforyou:
