Hello fellow LapBanders!
I was banded on 31Oct2008 and attended Oaks Day at Flemington a week later. I have found the whole experience quite painless. However I think i have my surgeon Mr Stewart Skinner to thank for this. I have lost 12.8 kilos to date and am hoping to lose another 10kgs by April. I am so glad I underwent the procedure as my blood sugars are now constantly under 5 which is fantastic. My starting weight was 107kgs and my height is 175cm so I have been really happy with my loss to date i just wish it were a little faster!!! But don't we all:thumbup:
