I had Dr. Atkinson do my surgery. I was nearly 550lbs and had my surgery in April. Now I'm 480lbs. It went very well. I've only seen him twice; once on surgery day, and then one of my fills. He's nice, but don't expect to see him very often. You'll deal with his staff (who I feel are very nice.) more often than not. My fills have been with Brian, one of Atkinson's medical staff.
They also have a free nutrition class once a month and a free yoga class which are taught by the same lady who is a ten year bandster.

Due to stress, work, and depression, I have become lazy with my life. I just stopped doing and caring.
Today, I start over. I'll measure out my portions, and I will go for a walk after work. Tomorrow I will go back to the gym and continue to do so three times a week, walking on the days I have no gym. I have lost 70lbs since April and I want to lose 30 more by December! I can do it! I just need to break from this depression!!

I started my banded adventure in the beginning of April. At the time I was 545lbs...Then the weight started coming off...until...
After nearly two weeks of teetering on 501.6-503.4lbs, I stood upon the scale today and my mind was blown.
Today I weighed in at 498lbs!!!! The 5-- is gone!!! Let's hope I can get that 4-- to a 3-- in a year!!!

505lbs up 3lbs, but not discouraged!! My pants are looser, and I'm gaining muscle because of the gym. I get a fill on Tuesday, as well. Staying positive!!!

I know it's hot out there, but remember to get up and get moving!!!
