I'm so thankful that the journey to being healthier and better fit for life started in December of 2008. Had surgery set for January the 17th both me and hubby. Did the surgery came out with flying colors. Had first fill on the 25th of February and the second to be done on the 25th of March. This is one surgery that i truly wished that I would of done a long time ago. It is such a blessing to be able to breathe better and able to walk across the room without being winded from the walk and have to set down. Your whole attitude changes and all. From december to now have lost a total of 50 pounds. Which is so awesome and can't wait for the next fifty to come off. I say to anyone reading this if you haven't done the lapband you need to do it. :wink_smile:
