Jen, you might check out Ann Wilson's Story from Heart, she had the lapband done and she feels that it has helped her singing. She was afraid how it was going to affect her singing as well. http://www.spotlighthealth.com/morbid_obesity/anns_story/anns_story1.html And a big welcome home!!! -

Welcome...this is a great place for support and to vent! -
No thongs for me, tourquise cotton panties and beige stretched bra(stretched way too much...I am ashamed I am still wearing it....lol I can remember I would never put any underwear on unless they matched. I have to get back into that habit!
-
Yes, If someone needs a pet boarded or something like that I can certainly do that. I don't have any extra room, but will certainly be glad to help out with a pet. I do have 1 dog and 3 cats already...so one more won't make a difference.
