howdy everyone!!!

Hello everybody...

My name is Carrie. I was banded May 4, 2003. Dr Watkins, Kirkland, Wa. My starting wt was 245 and now 170. It has been a long time since I have been on a forum.

I would like to know... How are other veterans doing at this point?

I am happy to have found this site....

Happy days..

Carrie

    Hi Carrie, I'm not a veteran but will be banded in the next few weeks. Congrats on the great weight loss. Just curious to know if 170 is your ideal weight and how long you took to lose it.

    HI...

    My ideal is 150-160. It took me a good two years to loose that weight. It is real slow and for some real real slow. There is no other way to loose. Congrats!!! on your new adventure.
