Guest bburkemper Posted July 28, 2003 Hi everyone. My name is Barb and I'm from Missouri. I was banded on 11/20/02 by Dr. de la Torre, and I'm very happy with my band. In fact, I LOVE IT! My starting weight was 322 lbs., I am currently at 223 lbs. (one more to go to get to the century mark!), and my ultimate goal is whatever feels good under 200 lbs. I'm glad to see another website dedicated to the lap band -- so glad the word is finally spreading! I am trying to do my share letting everyone I know hear about it!

quakergirl 2 Posted July 28, 2003 Hi Barb. Glad to hear another happy story about the band. Congratulations. I can't wait until I reach my century mark! This is a nice website, isn't it? I am on a lot of Bandster mailing lists but this is a much more convenient format in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
