brianw 14 Posted March 28, 2012 I'm 34 in Michigan...and have been wildly successful with my lapband. My goal was about 100lb loss...I'm close to that goal in one year. I went from lazy overweight guy to a gym rat, running 5ks almost weekly and currently training for a half marathon in the fall. I believe I fully understand the band and I'm a good tough motivator. I recently decided it was time to give back to the site that made me feel good when I was scared in the beginning. Must be serious about improving your life!

HELLHOUND 0 Posted April 4, 2012 Hello Brian, I was happy to read your post. I am looking for a mentor outside the clinical setting. I have tried traditional support groups and found I left them more discouraged than when I came. My experience with the Lap Band thus far is either vomiting everything I eat or not feeling any difference than before surgery. I am looking for someone who can direct me, from experience, to know when I am feeling how the band was intended and to help me create a plan that works for me and not the cookie cutter plans I have been given so far. I am ready and willing to do my part, I just need to get a little experienced advice and hone my tools. If you think this is something you can help with I would love to hear from you.
