blackcadillacs5 62 Posted October 21, 2012 Best decision I made for myself! Although I did not reach my yearly goal of 100lbs, the number is slowly starting to not take control, it is about getting there, period. I have lost about 90lbs (89.6!) and I am grateful. I am not there yet but I am on my way, however I can now say that I can stand on my own and no longer need to lean on my band "Oscar the grouch" to take the lead. I am doing it on my own and loving it! Perhaps, just perhaps I will get another fill when I hit a plateau and need that extra push. I appreciate this forum for the guidance it has given me, although I have never physically met anybody who has had the lapband yet, I know I can pick the brains of all you fellow cyber-bandsters! Much love, -Jason 8 ☠carolinagirl☠, DELETE THIS ACCOUNT!, JennyBee and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
