pfahren@msn.com 0 Posted May 22, 2008 (edited) Hi, I was banded on Nov. 30, 2007, my Dr. is Michael Snyder. To date I have lost 113 pounds. I am feeling really good, I was on oxygen full time at 4 liters and now just at night with my c-pap machine. I also was on an insuling pump and now I only do 1 shot at bedtime. I am also off of 8 medications. I am swimming 20 laps three times a week and working out 2 days a week. It is so nice to feel like a human being again.:tt1: Just wanted to say my Doctor is Dr. Michael Snyder in Denver, Colorado. My starting weight was 414 and today I am at 301 come on 299!:confused_smile: Edited May 23, 2008 by pfahren@msn.com to add my doctor and weight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
