HI everyone, hope all is well with all of you. I don't get much time to post here lately. It takes me forever now to catch up on threads that I have missed. I just wanted to say hi to everyone, it has been awhile. I am doing fine, I am still losing since my unfill. I am so glad that I did that it was a very rough 7 days to be overfilled.

I just can't get over how much this site has grown. Just goes to show you that there is a lot of people out there searching for help. This is a great place, just wanted you to know that. I wouldn't be where I am today. 67 pounds lighter is only part of it. I have got some great advise from this site. I made my final decision to have the lapband because of this site. It is a great place and I am glad that everyone can share their experiences here and we can all come and learn from each other.

Hope you all are doing well. Take care and have a wonderfull day!!

Always Kathy

Live every day as if it were your last and then some day you ll be right.

Kathy - I am glad you are still losing after the unfill. It's important for some of us to hear that, sometimes we are so afraid of taking out that little bit for fear of losing our restriction. I hope you can post more often, we miss your smiling face here!

Glad your doing well with your weight lose. thanks for sharing your good success with us.

I found out about this website at my last support group and now I am addicted to it .I have found out so much new infomation. I thought I had done all my research, one can never stop learning thanks to all of you

Hi Kathy! Glad to hear you're well and still losing. I recently had an overfill myself and hung onto it for 6 days. It was such a relief to get that unfill!

I also have a tough time keeping up with all the posts I've missed when I don't log in as often as I used to!! And, like you, I also noticed how much the site has grown. More users, more posts...hopefully, more visibility/information/knowledge for and about the lap band!
