Good day.

I had my lap band surgery on the 16 January 2014. It took me a while two years to make up my mind. I am so happy that I did this surgery. Since the 16th January 2014 I have lost 7 kg. I had no complications, I felt positive and determined. I am not a young person anymore but very young at heart. I am 54 years of age.

    At the age of 54, you've still have a lot of living to do! Age is just a number & I can tell you, losing this weight, will make you feel even younger. Congrats on your decision & Good luck on your journey! :)
