My name is Kath and I had the lap band put in when I was 17, back in December 2003. On the day of my op I weighed 160kgs (350 pounds)..
Six years later, I weigh 75 kgs (about 168 pounds?).
I'm from Melbourne Australia. I have mixed feelings about my surgery.
I've come here to seek some answers, and see if others have experienced the same things as I have. I also see lots of people new to their band-lifestyle, so I guess I'm a bit of an old hand. I might even prove helpful, who knows.
