My name is Josette and I'm 31. I live in Lansing Michigan and I've been married a year and a half. We have no children yet due to this pesky PCOS. At the moment we have 2 dogs whom I love beyond words. One is a pure bred german shepherd named Liberty and the other is half german shepherd and half yellow lab named Mason. I also have a huge black cat named L'Roar (don't ask) that was my mom's cat and ended up being mine. He's been a great comfort to me since she passed away. I've been pretty devasted without her for the past 7 months and I'm hoping getting this band and losing some weight will give me a whole new positive outlook on life. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm having my surgery done at the LapBand Center of Michigan in Port Huron. There are two doctors and they only do lapband and they have over 3000 surgeries combined under their belts. I have my consult with Dr. Boutt this coming Thursday June 15th and at that meeting I get to schedule the date for my surgery. YAY!

I'm currently around 385 and I'm 6'1". I think I'll leave it at that for now.

I'm so glad to meet you all! :clap2:

I am 31 and live in Vancouver, WA. I have been married to a wondeful man for 7 years. I have a 2.5 year old boy/daredevil who gives me gray hair daily. Then again so does my DH!! :cool: We have one dog. She is a scottie poo (with a little too much poo) and her name is Ebony.

I have yet to be banded, but I have narrowed my search down to Dr. Joya in PV. No date yet because I have to see if I can get financed somewhere. I am very anxious and excited to get my band ASAP so I can get started on my new life. :heh:

We do not own our own home but would love too. Housing is getting very expensive in Vancouver and Portland.

Josette, we seem to be about the same when it comes to weight loss. I am 6 feet tall and currently weigh 430. Where did you find out what you ideal weight is? I certainly don't believe that I shoudl weight 150!! :D

This thread is a great idea! Nice to meet ya'll!!

Amy

Hi 30 somethings.

I'm Julie, from Alabama but living in Yankee-land (NYC), as my family calls it. I'm a lawyer, single (except for a recurring relationship that springs anew every few months), 33 years old, no children (yet). I was banded in April by Dr. Fielding at NYU. I'm down 33 lbs to date and glad to finally have what I hope will be a good fill.

I get to the gym pretty often and meet with a trainer a couple of times a week to make sure I go. My pre-band downfalls were ordering food instead of preparing healthy things. Mexican food is the enimy!

Lastly, I'm vegetarian, if anyone is interested in sharing veggie ideas, particularly getting in enough Protein.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
