ksredhead 29 Posted April 1, 2013 Hello...my name is Becky and I am coming out of lurkerdom to introduce myself. My long story in short form: banded in Oct 2010 and lost 75 lbs thru May 2012 when I had a horrible food poisoning experience that caused my band to slip. Had emergency surgery and they had to remove my band. Hindsight, the band was not a good longterm tool for me, constant sinus/allergy issues meant fill/unfill more than normal. I am healed, both physically and mentally now and am scheduled for sleeve surgery on May 31...exactly one year after my emergency surgery. Howdy everyone! 1 LiggleLiggle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
