I am a 45 year old female very happily married to my best friend and husband for 26 years! We have two sons who are married, a daughter in college and one angle boy watching over us. I am a professional photographer and absolutely LOVE the creative outlet it brings. I work from home...I would love to have a studio some day! I shoot on location and have a portable studio for indoor shots.

My husband and I were banded on the same day - August 2nd. We decided to begin this journey together because who better to understand and support than your best friend going through it at the same time!?! I've written my banding story on my profile if anyone is interested.

I look forward to being active on the Lap Band Talk Forum as a place to ask questions and support others.

Glad to meet you!B)

Hi, my name is Julie, I am 33 and was banded on June 13th I am down 37 lbs since then...I have enjoyed reading the forum topics as it is nice to read that people experience the same things that i do ie: burping and the "tightness" if you eat or drink fast...I look foward to checking in with everyone to read about their success stories and hope that I too will be successfull on this long journey called life with lapband :-)

Welcome and best of luck to you guys on your new journey. I was banded on July 13th so this is fairly new to me. I will have my first fill on the 18th. Looking forward to start losing weight a little faster than it has been thus far.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
