Hello I just wanted to introduce myself.

[I'm Ready 2010 0]

Hi my name is Lori and I just wanted to introduce myself.

I am still in the information stage of my journey. It was time for my yearly appointment and I so dreaded the scale, and for the past 5 years my Doctor always asks "Have you thought about having a Lap Band done?" I always said no and never gave it a second thought. This time I left the office telling myself that I would think about it.

I came home and the first site I came to was this one. I want to say I have enjoyed spending the weekend with y'all.

I laughed, cried, and cheered with every story that I read. There was so much great information that I think all my questions have been answered.

I am tired of sitting and watching the train pass me by. I'm ready to get out of the station and hop on for a ride. So when I see the Doc this week for my follow up I am going to tell him that I'm Ready!

Thanks for sharing you stories. I hope to chat with you all soon.

Lori
