  1. I've been reading that in the USA a great many supplement ingredients are sourced from China.. An article I read today said that 90% of Vitamin C used in US supplements are imported from China, where conditions are hazardly polluted at best.. Is anyone else concerned about what we're swallowing for the rest of our lives? I know of one company that advertises that none of their ingredients are sourced from China.. I find it very comforting to know this..... Does anyone else know of other brands available from the store here that are not China sourced? According to US law, there is no requirement to state the country of origin of the ingredients that make up our supplements. Remember, your vitamin bottle can say "Made in the USA", but actually contain 100% ingredients imported from China... I find this disturbing....

    Banded at Northwest Weight Loss (Everett)

    I was banded by Dr. Michaelson at NWWLS in April of 2011. Coming up on two years! I'm down 149 pounds, still plugging along very slowly... This is absolutlely the best thing I've ever done for myself.. I should have done this 10 years ago. Dr. Michaelson saved my life! Best wishes go out to Shelleymb for her surgery tomorrow! Hope to see you at the monthly support meetings! They'll help you a lot. (Did hubby and I not meet you at a recent support meeting? You were wearing a tight pulled back, long pony tail (dark hair).>

    Who Has Lost Over 100 Pounds?!?!

    To date, Feb 29, 2012, I've lost 127 pounds. My hubby has lost 120 pounds to date.. We're a lapband family! I've got 14 pounds more to lose till I reach the goal that was set by my wight loss center... (I'd like to lose more.)
  5. Hi sha1234 Yes, I had a hiatus hernia repaired during my lapband surgery. I don't know how large it was, but know that I walked around with it for almost 20 years, taking omeprazole all the whiIe... : My recovery was uneventful.... I hope the pain you' re experiencing starts getting better soon.
