Hi everyone,
My name is Frank and I was just banded on 11/30/09. I was suppose to be banded on the 16th but I wigged out and didn't go (I'm kind of odd at times). As of my surgery date I lost 54 lbs during the 6-7 month pre-op journey. I have been overweight since I was 13 so this is very exciting for me. I'm a healthy HIV positive man and I haven't found anyone else on here that's poz. I thought it would derail the approval but it didn't!
