New to Lap Band Talk, but not to the lap band

Hello everyone!

My name is Teri - I'm new to the site, but have been banded for 3 years. I've lost 130lbs since I've been banded. I was once at 140, but I keep losing and gaining the same 10 lbs. I am completely unfilled right now, due to some weird issues going on. But all is well with my band!

I am from Indiana, hopefully I'll see some fellow hoosiers here!

I have pretty much kept the lap band a secret, so I would just like some fellow bandsters to talk to!!

Welcome to LBT and congrats on losing and keeping off the 130lbs!

Hi Teri, I'm Australian but I went to school in Indiana for a year as an exchange student 30 years ago.

Hi Teri,

Welcome to lapband talk. Congrats on your weight loss. I,, too, am in maintenance. It is hard, almost, harder than the original weight loss because of the fill problem. I was banded Oct. 30 2009. Good luck, you sound as if you have made it! Karen
