TexasBandito 0 Posted September 19, 2006 Hello, I am a 34 year old male, living in Katy, Texas. I was banded on 5/23/06, by Dr. Richard Wilkenfeld. When I started my pre-op diet, I weighed in at 310 Ibs. Today, I weighed in at 229 Ibs. and I feel GREAT:) My goal weight is 190 Ibs. I have started working out (resistance weight training and cardio). I have more energy, and can actually play with my two kids without having to take a break every five minutes, to catch my breath. People that have not seen me in a while, FREAK-OUT, and I love it. thanks for letting me share, Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jahair 0 Posted September 20, 2006 Way to go Joe! I live in Sugar Land and was banded in late Aug. Not much happening with the scale right now. I keep telling myself this is the healing period. But happy to hear about your progress. Jo Ann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
