jl2437 11 Posted September 13, 2013 So I have battled my weight since I was a teenager and nothing has lasted. As a young adult I lost 50lb quickly and gained back 75. It has always been an uphill battle and thanks to the support of my family and friends I have decided to get a lap band. I am scheduled for surgery Oct 3. I am beyond excited. My best friend had the procedure done three years ago and has lost a whopping "150" lbs. I hope that I can maintain my weightloss as well as she has. I am so excited to have join this forum so that I can hear about your experiences with lap band. 3 JOANNE M HOLL, whittycent and lisacaron reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eed1980 1 Posted September 14, 2013 I'm having surgery the same day - with Dr. Cobourn. Are you doing the shake diet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
