Hello everyone

I am Suzanne and am 36yrs old. I had a gastric band fitted on 19 Jan and am awaiting my first fill on 17March 08. I am very pleased with my band and have about 140lbs to lose!

    Hi there, hows it going so far? Are you happy with your decision. I had mine fitted in July last year, and have lost 39lbs so far. I am originally from the U.K but now live in Canada.

    Hi

    Yes i am very pleased with my decision as i know i won't put the weight back on. At the moment I am hungry as i don't have my first fill until March so its my willpower at the moment which is hard. I have only lost 12lbs up to now in the 3wks, but have noticed i have lost loads of inches, which is great!!
