  4. My bmi is 22.9. Down from 43 bmi.
  5. I hope all is well with everyone. I had my surgery in July 8, 2008 in PA. I had not complications or other issues until summer of 2014. I had a small slip. I was unfilled and the band reset itself back in place. In late July 2015, I had another slip. My new surgeon in NC, didn't want to unfill it at that time. I started experiencing heartburn, lower back pain, gas, bloating and other digestive issues. My surgeon did some xrays and we decided that it must come out. He asked if I wanted a revision and I informed him that I didn't want a revision. I had my band removed on October 26, 2015. All went well; surgery and recovery. I was put of work for 8 weeks following the surgery due my highly physical hib. My doc wanted to be certain that there wouldn't be any further issues. All in all, I have lost 130lbs of fat and I have put on 10 lbs of muscle. I have kept the weight off mostly by walking, a lot of dancing, calisthenics and eating well. I burn a lot of calories with dancing, so I actually eat more than I used to just much better. I hope everyone has a wonderful new year. Take care!

  7. I haven't been here in quite a while and this place never ceases to amaze me. I'm not active enough to participate at this time but this is such a wonderful idea. I love how supportive this community is of one another. Take care all.

  21. We're all grown, we know how to watch our own calories.
