Greetings fellow banders or wannabe banders. I had my surgery on Feb. 15 2007. To date I have lost 34 lbs. It has been much easier than I anticipated. When I didn't feel restricted on the amount of food I could consume I had an adjustment. This made a world of difference. So far I have had no problems. Thank God. Good luck to all.

welcome nurseburke....congrats on your weight loss...I love my band...it is such a wonderful tool....so glad that I had the surgery....

Hello! Welcome to LBT Congratulations on your quick healing and success thus far! Hope to see you on more threads!

All the best,

Karla

Hello and Welcome! Glad to hear you are doing well and having such an easy time of it!

Nurseburke,

You and I were banded on the same day and have lost exactly the same amount of weight. Doesn't it feel great?!

It does get easier everyday. I amaze myself when I think how little food it takes to sustain life when all these years I have eaten enough in one meal to feed a family of four.

Congratulations to you and good luck on your continued success.

Hi there. I just read your post and have a question. Did you have to wait till your next scheduled appointment for your fill? My next fill won't be until June 22nd and I know I need it badly!

Thanks for your reply!

Jen
