Hi! I am new to this website and I guess I am not forsure what exactly to write. I had the lap band surgery on June 9, 2008 and have had great success. I have currently lost 77 lbs as of December 30th. I am joining this website to beable to connect with other people that have had this procedure done and beable to conversate with others that are going through the same changes as I am.

wow thats an amazing loss you have done brilliantly, i bet u feel so much better for it. i had my surgery 23rd of june and have lost 35lbs, so alot slower than you but i love the benefits and the comments i'm starting to get. x

35 lbs is something to be proud of!! :party: As you know, the weight doesn't just fall off. I don't know about you, but I have battled weight pretty much my whole life and this has defiantely been a life changing event for me. My friends and family are all in "aw" about my change too. Thank you for your response so quickly.

Hey, I had my surgery on June 9th as well. I have lost 65 pounds as of Dec 29th. It is truly a life changing surgery. I am now able to do the things my kids always wanted to do. Like go for a hike, and ride bicycles. :party:

Life is not a piece of cake, I still have to work hard, eat the right food choices and drink enough Water. But is is so worth it.
