I HAD MY SURGERY DONE AUG. 15, 2007. AT MY HIGHEST WEIGHT I WAS 330LBS. I HAVE NOT BEEN ON THIS SITEMIN YEARS. I JUST GOT A EMAIL SAYING I REGISTERD 6 YEARS AGO TODAY!! WOW!! SEEMS LIKE JUST YESTERDAY I WAS THINKING OF HAVING THE SURGERY. I WAS TERRIFIED OF FAILING AND LETTING MYSELF DOWN!! WELL I CAN SAY 5 1/2 YEARS LATER I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY RESULTS!! I LOST 100 LBS SO FAST MY BAND SLIPPED. I WENT BACK IN AND HAD IT FIXED. I HAVE HAD NO OTHER PROBLEMS. I EVEN HAD A BABY 5-19-2011. I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THIS WITH OTHERS THINKING OF HAVING THIS DONE!!

Well done! Amazing effort.. I am 5 days post surgery and I just love to hear inspirational success stories like yours

Thanks. And GoodLuck!!

_{Thanks. I am a mother of 3 girls. 16, 11, and soon to be 2 year old. Greatest gifts ever!!}

I am always looking for long term bandits. It is so good to see how well the band has worked for you and that you have kept the weight off. Be proud of yourself! Can you tell us some secrets to losing the weight?
