Tomorrow marks 10 months since I was banded at SlimBand in Toronto. It was the BEST decision of my life. I am down 93 lbs since my pre-op diet started on August 20. I have no regrets. I have 14 lbs to go to reach my goal, and I plan to reach it by the one year anniversary date which is Sept. 4. I would love to help others to achieve success as well. Please do not hesitate to ask me questions.

Just a question, as a lap bander, when you reach YOUR goal, what will you do differently??/

That is a good question. My husband asks me the same thing. But my body seems to want to weigh what I weigh right now. So I think that I will just be able to coast along with eating the same amount that I'm eating now and maybe giving myself a break on the cardio. i will remain active but will hopefully be able to settle down on my obsessive exercise.

Amen to that!

I have found, it is a lifestyle change, and I will continue the way I am for the rest of my life....getting to my goal was primarily a learning experience....some hard knocks with stuck episodes, etc.....

BTW, I did continue to loose until my body was at where it wanted to be....

Congratulations on your success....you obviously "Get it"

Great to read about success with the gastric banding. So much of what is written is about the challenges that it can be a downer. Congratulations!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
