Hi, had my lap band done July 3, 2007. So far I have lost 57 lbs. Have not gained any back. That is a win-win to me. I am a slow loser, and would love to join your site if you don't mind. I am 56 yrs young and married, mother to 4 adults and 4 granddaughters and 1 spoiled dog. I had an accident on my right side at work in 97, from right foot upto right hip causing a broken ankle, a totally replaced knee, and eleven years of living with chronic pain. I also suffered through rehab, alot of pt, shingles, double cataracts and defective thyroid. But I still had the surgery, and now I have been diagnosed with Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome of Right foot. Wondered why I couldn't do jumping, marching, walking or repetitive exercies. So I must go to an ortho specialist this year for another surgery. This will be the third on foot. All in all, I feel blessed. Haven't had a fill since 6/23/08 went from 313 to 256. I follow the plan well, have alot of trouble eating alot of the food items, especially protein. I am from Jackson County, OH. Will go to Dr. Curry in Columbus, OH in Feb. Excited about this. Hate to exercise. Can't get on floor or low equipment. Have some nice exercise equipment, can't use. Would love to have the toning tables around here. No such luck. Anyone having any luck with them? Would love to have support and buddies to share and chat with since I am a stay at home. Love to hear from others and your experiences and stories.
