  1. Hi everyone! I have not posted on this site before but just wanted to introduce myself. I live in Christchurch, New Zealand and was banded on 29th March 2012. In 9 months I have lost 36 kgs or 5.5 stone or 79.6 pounds(whichever system you use)!!! My live has changed for the better. I used to take Metformin for insulin resistance and stopped these completely just before my op. I no longer require them at all as I now have a normal blood sugar/insulin ratio so am no longer classed as "pre-diabetic". I have loads more energy, walk, cycle, swim regularly because I now enjoy it as it's less of an effort!!! I no longer crave chocolate/sugary foods but when I feel hungry I naturally zone in on protein to satisfy me. I continue on this amazing journey and aim reduce my weight further in a safe and healthy way. I would be very happy to advise/answer any questions anyone may have about my weight loss journey. Good luck to everyone! Annemarie
