Who Has Lost Over 100 Pounds?!?!

Hi, Everyone....I think I'll be the contrarian voice here...
debbiejean replied to Headhunter's topic in Rants & Raves
The port coming thru the skin is nothing that no one has ever seen. My husband has a baclofen pump that works the same way as my band port, he goes in every six months and has it filled up with baclofen. Twice not once the pump has came thru the skin on both side of his belly - why? because it was placed too close to the skin and the constant rubbing of his pants wore the skin down and the port came thru the skin - the third time they buried it way under the fatty part of his stomach and his tubing has also came lose before and had to be replaced. So it is not something like out of alien to see a port come thru the skin, and if these doctors at this hospital had never seen this I would not want them touching me!! -
I live in Nashville and Dr. Morton did my surgery also.

I would do it again in a heart beat it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I understand what people say that you can go on a diet and lose the same 1-2 lbs. per week but can they keep it off and not gain it back? Are they hungry? Do they stay with the diet for a lifetime??? These are questions we need to ask the person telling us that. I have lost 150 lbs. in a little over a year and this is the best feeling in the world to be healthy and proud of myself.

I Am An Old Timer But I Am Terrified For What Lies Ahead
debbiejean replied to josephine's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I can totally retlate to you. I have been banded since Jan 06 and have lost 150 lbs. and I am now getting to the maintanence stage. I go back in 6 months also and if I am still losing he is going to do a small un-fill but feels that I may platue now that I have lost so much. I went in November and till January I had lost 10 1/2 lbs. I want to lose 10 more lbs. to get to 120 lbs. but don't know for sure if I will get there. The doctor has said basically that your body would know when to quit loosing weight??? Let's hope it knows to go to 120 lbs......lol -
