Hi my Name is Vickie. I have been Banded for 3 1/2 mos. I have lost 40lbs so far. I had a rough start..Diarreah caused Dehydration which I had to be Hospitalized for. I have since learned how to manage the Diarreah to prevent Dehydration. At first I was not sure I had made the right decission due to this Complication. But, I now know without a Doubt I DID make the correct decision and would do it again in a Spit Second!! The first two Pictures were taken the Day after my Lapband Surgery. The third Picture was taken at my last Drs. Appt. 40 lbs lighter!!
Digging Deep...Gaining Strength!!
