Hello there!! i am from N. Louisiana around Ruston. i was banded August 08 at P and S in Texarkana. i was beginning to wonder if it was going to work for me but since my last fill a week and half ago. its WORKING!!!!! they are great over there and follow you closely :thumbup::thumbup:

i have a 10CC band and have had 7 fills. i know most fills were very very small ones at a time. but i went in fussing the last time and she got this thing working! NOW i know it works. i really had given up.

How are ya'll a year or two later?

I am nearly 3 yrs. out. I am fine. Haven't lost all the weight yet but that is my doings. We all have tool and gadgets we buy and don't use. Well....I am guilty of that sometimes with my band. It is a weightloss tool that I bought and sometimes don't use. It doesn't tell me what to eat, plus it doesn't act like a barrier when I stuff something in my mouth that shouldn't be going. Only I can do that. I wouldn't change one thing about getting my band. I would do it again tomorrow.

i am doing fine too. i still haven't lost all the weight but i do try to break those bad habits of mine. the band won't keep you from putting a cookie in your mouth lol
