This time last year I had not even thought about having the band fitted let alone be on here after a 7st 7lbs weight loss in 10 months.
I am also so excited to go and visit sassy in her home 2mor, we have only met once but it was like we had known each other for ages. I am looking forward to helping sara get through her band and supporting her when she needs a friend or a person to go walking with. I went through this on my own until I found the forum and I am going to make sure that I can offer some support to anyone that is starting out so they do not feel so alone like I did.
For the first time in many years I am starting to feel like a lady and like everyone else in the world.
Thank you TT for making my dreams possible by supporting me through one of the hardest journeys I will ever have to make in my life now.
take care Dianne

Oh sweet lady!! You have a reason to be SO PROUD of yourself!! You are doing this in style!!
You know, in a way you remind myself of me....the desire to be there for others on this journey. Recognizing the importance of having someone there to help you along. Keep extending that hand lovely lady...it has the potential of bringing you more peace within yourself than you have ever known before. It really can.
I'm proud of you, sweetie.
