I am sitting here at 192 lbs. I started at 337lbs. My life has changed so much. I look back now and say...what the hell did I do to myself! I was out of control! Now the scale is my best friend! I just want everyone to know that you can do it too!

Here is my story from start to finish. There are 2 videos and some pics that show the end result. The last video is being filmed right now for a Lap Band special coming to the Health Channel. Here are the links: Then check out the pics! You are on the right track with this procedure in my experience. Your life will be so much better... Good luck with your new adventure! Todd

I was on a cruise ship for 6 1/2 months performing. 2 weeks before we came home I got the flu and was throwing up a LOT. I started having REAL problems holding anything down and was having severe acid reflux. To the point of caughing up gastric juices from my lungs!!! Lost 10 lbs by the time I left the ship. Went to the doctor asap at home... next day surgery! The band had slipped and was obstructing almost all I ate or drank. Due to the throwing up I got a hyatal (spelling) hernia. Had the band fixed and the hernia repaired. Now things are getting better but it was still a real pain. Hope this does not happen to anyone else...

It is now 2 1/2 years post lap band... Victory! 144 lbs lost. Waist was 56 " now 36"!!! 337lbs to 193lbs. It saved my life in so many ways. It is a miracle. You can do this!!! I did and I'm no one special. I am not hungry and I don't crave anything any more. Liberating feeling. Watch for the final chapter being recorded soon and you'll see what I'm talking about. Good luck with your lap band adventure!!!

It is a strange feeling when you finally get to the weight you dreamed of... you look back at the person you were and say to yourself "how could I have let that happen to me"! I was 337 at my highest weight. Today I am 197! God Bless the Lap Band procedure. You can do it too. Todd Hartmann

This is a documentary of my LAP-BAND® experience. To say this has changed my life would be an understatement. . I want to share this with anyone who is in need of this procedure. Addicted to food?

GONE GONE GONE!!! If you want to lower health care cost the government should just pay for Lap Bands for all who need them!:laugh: Diabetes cut in half, Heart Disease...half...etc. Just my opinion...can you tell I am SCREAMING WITH JOY regarding the LAP-BAND®®®®?
