    Hi, I am Linda Harrington I was banded on 11/6/2008. So far I have lost 20 lbs. I was 185 when I went for my pre-op and I am now 165. I was originally 190 lbs but my insurance made me lose some for a six month period and I was at 185 when I actually had the surgery. I am 5'1", 61 yrs old and "was" diabetic. I have gone from over 60 units of insulin per day and 4 metformin tablets at 500 mg each to 0-4 units of insulin and 1 metformin in the AM.:wink_smile: My surgeon was Dr. Ken Hollis in Houston TX at True Results. The surgery was actually done at Memorial Hermann in Houston. I am really happy with my surgery and I am so glad I had it done especially for the diabetes. My daughter is getting married 6/20/2009 so I hope I am in really good shape by then. Since it is so soon after my surgery, I am walking 2-3 times per week and also doing pilates for toning. I hope I get rid of the flab on my arms. The rest I can hide under my clothes. My greatest concern is eating too much or the wrong thing and messing up what I have accomplished so far. Does anyone have any good lap band safe recipes. I am getting tired of eating everything the same way.
