Need mentor to talk to. I was banded 27aug2015. I am 50 years old, & have lost 21 lbs so far- just need make sure I am on the right track. Looking for a buddy!

New to this! Nice to meet yall..my name is Denise & I was banded 27aug2015. I have had 1 fill so far and have managed to lose 21 lbs so far. I started at 230 lbs & am down to 209 now. I just turned the Big 50 & have the rest of my life to figure out how to eat healthier and get this band thing figured out! Lol I am raising my 4 grandkidz-alone (ages 9,7,3 & 21 mos )-so, I really needed a change, to get healthier. I have been heavy my whole life and am trying to get use to all this counting calories, getting correct amount of protein intake etc. So far, it's been a good experience. ..besides the great deal of pain I experienced post op. I look forward to picking up a few lifelong friends, that are going thru the same things I am... Looking forward to meeting yall♡♡♡

Makes me want chicken right now! THANK YOU.. my gkidz kill me wantn chicken strips at every meal, if they could-lol Well, maybe they can have it more often now...

I am raising my 4 grandkidz in the chaos of getting banded 27aug2015... I have a full plate & not much time to get out and about. I am just looking for someone to talk to ... I don't always have lots of time to drop what I am doing to answer right away! You must be patient, family oriented, love to camp, the outdoors, travel, motorcycles, caring, great sense of humor, mature, & a bit spontaneous... or just be bored as I am..lol I promise-as soon as I figure out how this thing works, I will post a pic. I am 50 years old 5' 7" have reddish brown hair & am around 200 lbs (soon)- Very fun loving and caring. Let's chat & see what we have in common
