przyie 1 Posted July 27, 2003 Hi everyone...I'm Dee and I was banded 2/13/03 in Scottsbluff, Ne. To date I have lost 75lbs and am so glad that I was banded. Our quality of life has definitely improved with the surgery. So much more energy, and can't wait to start taking hula lessons :laugh :laugh We have 3 children - 1 a chef, 1 in college and 1 a senior in high school. I plan on being close to goal next May for graduations and our 25th anniversary. I look forward in all of your stories and encouragement! Dee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NetteInBoulder 1 Posted July 31, 2003 Dee, Congratulations on your great weight loss! Imagine how great it will feel next year when the 25th anniversary and graduation pictures get taken! I just got back from a family wedding and was so grateful for the 23 pounds I'd lost since the band. I wasn't hiding from the camera for once. Well, keep up the good work!
