Hello, I am in northern VA and I was banded in Reston VA on Oct 11th...2007...Best thing I have ever done...dropped a few sizes already and over 60 pds... I eat normal food and life is good... I only wished I could have done this 3 years ago... before I put all the weight on...LOL...I have about 70 more total to lose to reach my goal...Good luck to all of you... You have made the right decision I am sure...I was a self pay by the way...I have Cigna but they had a bariatric clause and would not cover it for me...Good luck...

Thanks..I am not perfect but I am doing it slowly for me...I still eat normal foods...nothing special... I went for a fill today and now I am at 7.2cc's so in a week or so we will see if that could be my sweet spot... he added 1.2 so hopefully this will work for me....and I try to get 1/2 hr of cardio in at least 3-4 times a week...I didnt have a huge restriction before... but I know about my cut off....LOL...Good luck
