Hi Carole, I am new here too.. Was just banded last Thursday. My Surgeon was Dr. Michael Snyder, Denver. Doing OK, but thought I would feel much better by this point.

Hi Carole, and congrats on your 70lb loss!! My name is Kerri and I was banded in Maine on March 19, 2008. I have lost about 50- ish lbs, and I too am finding things wayy harder. I would like to lose another 50-60lbs and seem to have lost my ambition along the way.. I am really frustrated with myself.

I used to be on here all the time, but since I've been struggling I've kept to myself. I need to do something different.. So here I am!
