I'm sure y'all may have discussed this before, but am curious if anyone here has been banded several years. Just curiuos about long-term results.

Hi Diane:

I was banded in August of 2003. Lost about 55 pounds, most of that in the first year.

Good luck to you...do you have a date?

August 2003 for me, too. I lost 70 lbs the first year, 50 in the second and have been intentionally maintaining since this past summer.

I was banded in October of 2002.

Had it removed in November of 2005.

Banded Sept. 2003 down 64 pounds 54 of that in the first year.

Banded August 2002

Unbanded November 2005

Banded in October 2003. Lost 50 pounds the first year, 25 the second, and 5 so far the third.

Banded 3/17/04 - lost 125 to date.

Currently my band has slipped. I will know in June whether I can keep this band. I have no fill but it still gives me some restriction.

Banded 9/8/05 - for those of you who have been unbanded - do you mind me asking why? For those that have lost over 50 - are you maintaining?

Mae was banded in 2001. Here's her website:http://www.myagb.homestead.com/why_i_chose.html
