So cool, to get a response from a post already. Then I noticed my mistake. I was banded in 10/2006 not 2007. I have had the lapband over a year and two months.So my weighloss is not as drastic. Only three a month, not 20 a month. I did expect to get drastic weightloss that did not happen. However, Like I said before the lapband is the best thing that I ever did. As a lover of food and binge eater before I would put weight right back on and more. The lap band has helped me deal with eating behaviors that were unhealthy. That is why I decided to try a forum to foster a support group. My Dr has a support group, but I did not want to drive the distance.

Howdy from North Texas! This is my first forum ever. With dial up doing the internet has not been very fun for me. However, changing is in the attitude: slow is better than not at all. Anyway, I got banded 10/07 and have only lost 43 lbs. Hoiwever, the band has been the best thing I ever did. This year will be different and my first stop is here...What do most people expect and get from forums? Hopefullly I will get and give support and have lots of success. I did not get up to 280 because I did not have issues around food. Thanks for being here.:confused:
