Hi everyone! I am a new bandster! I was banded 12/13/2007 by Dr. Miguel at Bajanor in Tijuana Mexico. I weighed yesterday morning and to date I have lost 32 lbs. Only 73 to go :eek:

I have been reading the forums and received a lot of great information and decided I should join. I live in a small town in Oregon and there aren't many people to bounce things off of when it comes to the Lap Band, so this is a great site!

Dashley,

I am going to have the surgery on Feb. 11 in New Haven, CT.

I hope to lose 80-90 pounds! Good luck to both of us!

Hope you are feeling well!

Tina

Thanks so much for the reply---and good luck on your surgery--it's not far away! I am so glad I did it--it took me over a year to take that step! I'll look forward to hearing from you after you get banded!!

      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.
