My Lap Band Journal

Well, I've decided to let the nice folks at diary-x host my journal, so you can check in there periodically to see if I've updated my journal. Mostly I will probably just copy posts from bandsters to help me keep track of my progress, but you might find it interesting. I know I always enjoy reading about other people's progress.

Here are my statistics. I'll track and post measurements once a month, probably check and post my weight weekly.
