Congrads on your date if you have any questions let me know. I was banded last Jan and lost about 72lbs. Slgandera

He is my doctor and I think he is great.

When I hit my frist goal of 175 I got a tattoo on my leg. I always wanted one so it helped me to stay on track and get to goal.

I was feeding my dogs dinner and saw that they eat twice as much as me.

Mine was when I found out I had some major back problems and the extra hundred pounds was not helping. So one day soon after that in the shower I was washing my fat body and I burst into tears feeling very lost because I have tried every diet out there for the last 10 years with no luck. So that day in the shower was a turning point in my life. That afternoon I started the million of hours of research on weight loss surgery. I had my lap band put in on Jan 10th, and have lost 55lbs. Thanks to the Good Lord Above!!!! Amen

I was banded in Jan-08 and I have lost 42lb also. I think we are right where we need to be.

I live in Colorado Springs but was banded in Pueblo in Jan-08. I have not been able to find anyone local who is banded too. It is great to see so many of you from southern Co around. How is everyone weight loss doing? I have lost about 45lbs so far.

I went to a public swimming pool yesterday with my 11 yr old and had on a bathing suit for the frist time with out a shirt covering me up. My biggest victory yet.

I am looking for some good healthy summer recipes. :confused_smile:

:thumbup:I made it to onederland after my last fill about 3 weeks ago. When they gave me my fill I was 200 now I am between 193 and 194. Is it too late to join you all?

:biggrin:Try calling Dr. James B. Smith in Pueblo Co he is my Dr and is wonderful. I think he charges 150.00 or so for a fill. The phone # is 719-561-4300 good luck
