Almost 10 Years Post Op But New Here :-)

[Nette Fosters 41]

Hi everyone :-)

My name's Annette and in my enthusiasm to connect with online Lap Band community (I found and downloaded an iPhone app this morning, registered and posted within my first few minutes) I didn't even notice this "Introductions" board and went ahead and introduced myself on the "Post Op" Board. Oops, please forgive my newbie clumsiness. I'll learn my way around in time and appreciate your positive suggestions and compassionate feedback when I make mistakes.

If you have the time and interest, please take a look at my intro on "Post Op." I will read your introductions and I look forward to getting to know each of you over time.

As I share about on the other board, I've had my band since 2003 so I'd be happy to answer questions you may have about my experience as a long-time bandster but I also want to acknowledge that my experience (surgical, type of band, etc.) may be somewhat different or outdated compared to you fresh new Band owners :-) but I bet the overall journey of weight loss and the subsequent adjustments (physical, mental, emotional, social, and even spiritual) will be fairly similar. Thanks for being here! Talk to you soon :-)

~Annette
