I started at a really high weight and have lost 115 lbs. The first year was about 2 pounds a week - but now I am pacing at 1lb a week. I have not had a fill since May 2007. I have another 80 lbs to lose. Do you attend the support group for bandsters? I have not made it yet, because I work in Fairhope and it's hard to get there by 6:00. But I plan on going to the October meeting. GOOD LUCK!!!

Hello,

I was banded in Mobile on 6-19-07 by Dr. Hannon. Love him! I go for another fill tomorrow & hopefully weight loss will take off.

It has been a really slow process so far but I'm not giving up.

Hi! I was banded 7/01/08 by Dr. Snow at Mobile Infirmary. Started pre-op liquids on 6/21 and had lost 24 pounds on day of surgery. 2nd fill was last Friday 9/5/08 and I have lost 50 pounds total. Only another 100 to go! Better still, I have not had any insulin injections or blood pressure meds since the surgery!

Congrats!

I've also come off my blood pressure medicine and am now just 3lbs. from being half way to my goal weight. My BMI has come down 13 points as well and I am starting to wear size 18's instead of XL sizes. :rolleyes2:

      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.
