Argon,

I think I know who you are talking about her initials are MS... she is a good friend of mine and she would be flattered to know you consider her an inspiration. This is one of those people who when you meet is truly a good person, she is a good kind spirit and has worked damm hard on her head and her body to get where she is today. She is one of the bandsters that I respect the most out of the dozens that I personally know.

If it is who I am thinking of I am not sure if you read this but she has started to work with the TLBC clinci on life coaching too.

Ok, maybe not famous, but to me, this one gal is. For those of you who don't visit the canadianlapbanders site, you may not know of her. She doesn't post much, which is a shame, cause I find her inspirational. (if you are a member, and don't know who I'm talking about, you can PM, and I'll tell you who's posts and pictures to look for on the other board)

I won't name names, but she was banded a little over 2.5 years ago, started at 427 and is now at 138. From what I've read in previous posts, about 230lbs of those were lost in the first year.

No comparing though, cause seemingly the higher the weight you start at, the faster it comes off in the beginning. But then again, there's another recent bandster, done in May who had 50-ish pounds to lose, and is very close to done. AHHH!

Anyways, not that she's alone... there's lots of people who've lost huge amounts like that on here, and elsewhere (with the band), but it's nice to hear of people a little closer to home.

:clap2:

Yes, that is her ;)

I actually told her on the other board that I thought that... and I also saw that she's now working for TLBC. Good for her!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
