Joy1961 134 Posted October 3, 2013 I had Lap Band surgery 1 yr ago next week. I have lost 85 pounds. I'm at goal ( though i'd like to lose 5 more as a cushion) but I have to say, it was the best decision I've ever made for myself. I am off if narcotic pain medication. I'm active. I can take Zumba classes. I'm feeling great! Was it hard? Oh yeah. But so worth it. I'm 52 and my only regret is that i didnt do this 10 yrs ago!! 12 katie2244, dylanmiles23, KAATNS and 9 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandista 7,466 Posted October 3, 2013 Yippee! I am a 1961 baby also and I hear you on wishing I had made this change in my life sooner. Will be banded 11/5 and am so grateful for this kind of encouragement. You did it, and I'm going to do it, too! Best wishes...... 5 Joy1961, Debbie3sons, PrettyThick1 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
