I am so lucky that my band hasn't had any problems in the 2 years I've ignored it. I've lost about five pounds in the last couple of weeks, and I've been exercising regularly, so I'm feeling pretty happy about that. I agree that going on LBT is a great way to keep motivated. I'm gonna do better about logging on!! Thanks so much for your support. Liz

Hi IndioGirl, I am soooooooooo impressed by what you've done (and really mad at myself). I had my lapband put in right after you on July 30, 2007, but I only lost a measly 45 pounds in the first year. Since then I've mainly used the band to stop me from gaining weight which it has done admirably, but I still need to lose another 50 pounds. I went in for a fill a couple of weeks ago for the first time in two years, and am trying to recommit myself to losing weight again. I'm determined to stick with it and do a better job this time!! Wish me luck!
