I had my surgery 02/26/2008. My highest weight has been 344 lbs, however prior to going to surgery I was about 321 lbs. As of today 11/04/2009 I have lost 56 lbs. However I have had a couple of slips and instances where my band had to be deflated. I have also developed some eating habits that are not conducive to the band. However my doctor continues to work with me and I am back on track. I believe the band was the right decision for me and it has been successful. I know I could not have lost this weight on my own without the assistance of the band. I am on my weight loss journey and I hope to lose another 30 lbs before my two year anniversary in February 2009.
