new band member

rjonesii · August 2, 2007

I was banded July 13, 2007 (LUCKY FRIDAY THE 13TH). I lossed 14 lbs prior to surgery. It has been almost 3 weeks and I have lossed an additional 21 lbs. I am need to lose another 30-35 lbs to be satisfied but want to possibly lose another 45. My wife wants me to lose another 20 however I been the big guy for a long time and now i want to be small. IMy procedure was done in Atlanta, GA by Dr. Edward Linn at Emory University. I have been completely satisfied. I can say at this time this is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

:whoo:

I was banded on July 6, 2007. The week prior I lost 11 pounds to get prepared for the surgery. Since surgery I have lost 11 pounds. So total of 22. Tomorrow I go for a doctor's visit. Still sore in my right side. At this point, I haven't been hungry at all. I hope to lose 65 more lbs.
