Funny, my band name is Looosssiiieee. I was banded May 19, 2008 and the day of post op appointment I decided that was the name I was going to give it! :thumbup:

I named my band Looosssiiieee on the day I got it. I love my band Looosssiiieee!!!

Count me in!! I love a challenge!!

Today is my 1yr bandiversary!!! I have lost 98.2 lbs and feel FANTASTIC!!! Happy Bandiversary to all that had their surgery today as well. I am sooooooo happy that I chose this surgery. I would recommend it to anyone. It feels great to be able to wear 16W and not 28W. I saw someone at church this weekend that I haven't seen in a year and she was in awe. All she kept saying was "Oh My God, Oh My God". :Banane01: That to me is the best when I get the reactions from people I haven't seen since my surgery. Have a wonderful day everyone!!! :Banane33: :purplebananna:

I am Dr Atkinson's patient. I was banded on May 19, 2008. So far I have lost 95 lbs and would do it again in a heartbeat. Good luck to all of you on your new journey!! Fran xo

Thanks Elaine!! I just stay away from carbs and just eat my Protein and don't snack.

I have been losing at a pace of 1 to 2 lbs a week, so far since my surgery on May 19th I have lost 86.2. I have a total of 200 lbs to lose but you have to be patient. I know it seems like forever but it will all be worth it in the end. I am so happy that I decided to get the lapband. Slow and steady is a good thing. I wish you lots of luck and happiness once you have your surgery. God Bless!!! Fran xoxo

Another weigh in and down another 1.4 lbs for a total now of 86.2 lbs!! Looosssiiieee is amazing!!! I love Looosssiiieee!!!...my band.
