I just scheduled my lap band surgery for December 12th. Figured I would come and introduce myself to the forum! I am Andrew Smith from Hillsdale, Michigan. I am a graduate of Western Michigan University with a BS in Geography. I am currently married to my wonderful wife, Laura, who has also had lap band done!

The ones of me sitting in the chair was last June 2011, The one in the Lions jersey is me on 10/2/12, Along with pictures of my Border Collie, Arthas, between then and now!

Hey! I just found all of these replies in my email! I have been so busy with work and home life I forgot about this website! I am currently 345 lbs. I started at 450 and it has almost been a year. I'm able to stand on my feet more. I now have a job working with at-risk children where I am on my feet all day and very physical. This would have never been remotely possible at the weight of 450 lbs. My knees would collapse on me! Thank you all for your encouragement!
