springirl 0 Posted August 7, 2003 Hi, My name is Spring and I had my Lap Band surgery in January of 2003 at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. I adore my doctor, Dr. Scott Cunneen and would highly recommend him. I'm in my 50's so my weight loss has been slow. I have had 5 fills (I wouldn't count the first one)...some of us need more than others! Now I feel I am at a very good level of restriction. My starting weight was 278 and I have lost 40 lbs since my surgery. I am down 60 lbs. from my top weight in 2002 and I am getting into clothes I haven't worn for 3 years. I am thrilled to have this tool to help me acheive a normal weight. I have been overweight and on diets since I was 9 years old. Now I feel I have a chance at a more normal and much healthier life. My life has already improved a great deal. I have a goal to lose 75 lbs. by the end of the year. I will keep you posted. Spring Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
