When we do well, we can help others! We are a walking advertisement for the LapBand.

Had a great meeting today with the hospital Executive Assistant Director, My Doctor, the Allergan LapBand Representative, the OR Staff and the Staff of the Doctor.

Learned so many things about the LapBand, and how I am going to be the chosen "Patient" to help further the progress of the LapBand and the future of its success in my area. Feeling very proud that I have done well.

Found out that in America this year, the LapBand surgery surpassed the Gastric Bypass and is increasing in popularity! How wonderful to have this hidden tool to help us lose and keep the weight off that had caused us problems in the past associated with obesity. I love my BAND and I am so happy to be off diet pills that made my heart palpitate! I can sleep soundly at night, and get rested for my job the next day!

My doctor is the best, really cares and great followup! It makes me want to turn back the hands of time, do it sooner, what I could have enjoyed that I have passed on.

Oh well, look out world, I may be one of those sky divin grannies at 80!

You go girl best wishes and happy journey. imaluckydog

Awesome news...

That's my only regret too...that I didnt do it sooner...but I needed it 20 years ago and it wasnt available...

I think its awesome that you are going to be a spokes person for the band...I also have an Allergan.
