Holy cow, Girl!!! Look at you. You are gorgeous and certainly don't look like you need to lose another 50 pounds! I bet you feel like a million bucks! Good Job, Congrats!

I had the same doctor as you and you are right she is great as is the whole staff. Knowing that everyone that works there has had lapband makes it so much better! You are doing great!

      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.
