:huh2:Hello ! I was banded on April 15,2008 in Birmingham , Alabama by Dr Scott Pennington. I've been lurking here for awhile now & decided tonight to join. So far I have lost 20 pounds :embaressed_smile: I just wanted to let all of you know how very helpful Lapband Talk has been to me. After reading so many post, I realize that everyone is unique & that no 2 people lose weight at the same rate. My losing has been slow but as long as I'm losing I'm ok with that. I wanted to say Thanks to all of you.
