1) I was wondering why you signed on to this site?

Because I had just gotten the Lap Band and wanted to meet others like me. I also spent a lot of time reading the success stories. There weren't a lot who'd lost over 200 pounds but there some (like Floridays and Cazzy!) and they gave me the inspiration I needed to think I could do it too.

2) Why are you still here after a year?

Because I've made some great friends here. Also because I see a lot of newcomers who are desperate for facts and information. Now that I'm one of the ones who've lost over 200 pounds, I hope that maybe I can give others the inspiration they need to know they can do it, too. I remember how overwhelming and daunting the task seemed and if I can help someone else to realize it's possible then I'm happy.

3) Why are you still here after five years?

N/A

4) How many years have you been on this site?

Since January 2012, so about 20 months.

To keep an eye out for those who I have made friends with and chat.

Also to read anything that sticks out in forums to see if I can learn from it or help someone else
