I Love My Band!

I just have to say, especially for anyone who's considering the Lap Band and looking on these boards for advice, I absolutely love my Lap Band. Seriously. This is by the far the BEST thing I've ever done for myself.

I was banded on Jan. 6, 2012. I have lost 62 pounds in the last 3 months since being banded. I have Multiple Sclerosis, and since losing this weight (even though I still have a lot to lose) I feel so much better physically. I have even been able to stop taking a couple of my medications for MS symptoms because the symptoms have improved as my weight has dropped.

Also, I can eat anything, just in small quantities. I've never vomited or spit up since surgery, either.

I am very much in the Green Zone as far as fills, too.

So for anyone considering Lap Band, I would highly recommend it. I positively love mine!
