Introduction

Just a quick intro by request LOL

Have seen references to this board for a while, finally managed to wander over. I'm active on several yahoogroups (bandsters (moderator), smartbandsters, extraordinarybandsters), Spotlighthealth and ObesityHelp.

Was banded 10/17/03 by Dr. Marina Kurian at Lenox Hill in NYC. Currently down 119 lbs (probably more but haven't weighed for a while) and should get a fill but waiting until some personal mega-stress is over (which should be soon thankfully!) so I can refocus on loss. However, the lovely thing about this band-o-mine is that for the first time, this sort of stress hasn't caused GAIN. Have gone through 2 holiday seasons with loss each time (again firsts) as well

I really like how this board works technically...very user-friendly (the hover feature when browsing topics is awesome!) and so easy to get avatars/pics in without delay!

I look forward to getting to know folks here and see who I know from elsewhere.

Hey, wait a sec, what's "the hover feature when browsing topics". You doing something I don't know about? What am I missing?! Help!

Found it by accident...was browsing post topics and my mouse was a bit over to the right of the post link and a thingie (yup that's the technical term) popped up with the first paragraph or so of the actual post...
