Another newbie

BandedGal · 06-30-2006, 09:57 PM

Hello everyone!

My name is Sam, 26 years old, from Queensland Australia. In Feb 2005 I had Lap Band surgery, and have gone from 297lbs to 147lbs [135kg to 67kg] (and still losing).

I am about to see a plastic surgeon for a tummy tuck, and actually found this site when searching for tummy tuck stuff. I had a quick lurk, and you all sounded so nice, I just had to join!

I am looking forward to getting to know you all.
