Hi everyone! It's been quite a long time since I've posted in this forum. I see some old familiar faces still posting and commenting.

Just to catch up, I was banded December of 2013. Highest weight 295. I reached my goal of 165 in February of 2015. I've been mostly maintaining since then. I've gained about 5 pounds recently and it's something I need to work on. Lifetime success is not letting it get out of control, right?

Since my band, I discovered a love of fitness and running. I ran a half marathon last April on the day before my 42nd birthday. This August,I completed a Sprint Triathlon!

Just want to say, I love my band and I am loving having my life back.

I hope everyone is doing well.

To all the newbies, find a plan and STICK WITH IT! The band is only a tool, you must make some changes.
