Im New! Banded in 2005 & just now filled properly!!!

HI! My name is Nicole. I live in Idaho Falls, Id. I was banded in aug 2005 by dr. Kuri in Mexico, With 3 of my friends. They all have done great, Me being the smallest out of the bunch, I've seen the least weight lose. I just recieved my 3rd fill. I was 272 day of surgury. on Oct 1st this year i was 236, Today i am 224. Im so happy to finaly feel restriction. :thumbup: I think it took this visit for me to realize that the band is a tool and i need to remember it's there. No more drinking with meals, no more fast food. So i am here for support. For 3 years i neglected my band , No more! Any comments, experiences, tips??? PLease send them my way!!!! Look forword to getting to know you all! :biggrin:

Welcome Nicole! I think it's amazing that even after 3 years, you can get a fill and pick right back up where you left off.

Good for you for coming back for a fill and letting the band work for you!

Hello and welcome Nicole :biggrin: I am sure you will find lots of tips and pointers on the forums.
