My journey begins

[Amour 0]

I am new to this group and was referred by a good friend who's a member and just recently new to the LAP-BAND®®®® journey. I started my journey about 6wks ago which would be late Sept. I am currently down 40lbs on the pre-surgery low carb/high Protein shake diet.

I still have a long way to go due to my high BMI but i'm hoping to be successful even at this pre-surgery portion. I'm looking for all of the encouragement I can get and am glad to be part of such a wonderful support system as this one.

Love and blessings,

Amour
