Check out this article on Governor Christie and the Lap-Band. Feeling a little famous at the moment

Thank you y'all for the well wishes and compliments!

Alex, you're part of the conversation.

That's all anyone can strive for.

Cool.

Fabulous, way to go Alex! :)

I hope Alex makes it to a talk show like Dr.Oz . ????

Well, you always have been "famous" to us, so no surprise there!

You've saved many lives! Way to go Alex!!!

You're a great ambassador for all WLS Alex.

Alex, I'm glad you were featured. But the article would have been so much better if they focused on more success stories like yours and how you made the band work for you. To me the article was too negative. It's true that it's not an easy fix and there can be complications. But it IS a fix and many compliant banders find their lives totally transformed, all for the better. Anyway, although I would have liked the article to be more positive, it was still a good way to get some info out to the public. And you look fit and fantastic!!!!

I thought it was good that the article didn't make it seem like once you have the surgery the weight will just magically fall off. The article shows that the surgery is only a tool and not a fix. It's the changes the person makes that determines if it will be a success or not. People need to be aware that it requires hard, dedicated work. That's my opinion anyways.

Alex is the lead singer in our Bariatric Band....yes the pun was intended LOL

Congrats my friend!!
