Hi All,

I'm Amy originally from NJ, but now living in sunny FL. I haven't been active on any of the lap band boards in years. I decided that I needed to get back to the support groups so I can continue to do well with my band. I was banded by Dr. Rumbaut in Nov 2002. I reached my goal of almost -100 in 11 months. I had a baby in July 2004 & was able to get back down to my goal weight after the baby. It took me about a yr to lose 75 lbs of pregnancy weight. Since moving to FL in 2006, I have gained about 20-25 lbs. I'm trying to get back down to my current goal which is about 20 lbs away.

Amy :scalesno:

Hi Amy

I'm in FL too! I am sure you will get the last 20 lbs off w/o any problems. You completed your journey before to your goal weight and I am sure you will do it again. Are you planning to have a fill soon?

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
