Good afternoon,
I had lap band surgery about 8 years ago. I did ok and lost weight but i never got to my goal. I had several providers leave the practice that I went to and gradually i stopped going all together. Needless to say i gained the weight back . I have decided to bite the bullet and start again. I have an appointment next Friday. I am scared and embarrassed but there is still some hope lingering. I was just wondering if anyone has been thru this ?

I've lost 98lbs, and my birthday is in one week. I am almost 8 months post op (will be on 9/6), so maybe I can get 100 for my birthday? It'd be so awesome!
I also had a HUGE NSV today- the pants I was wearing in my before picture were a size 28, and I can fit SUPER comfortably into a size 18 as of today! (Almost need a 16 now; definitely gonna get a belt for the first time in my life soon).
