115lbs 4 years later

[115lbslapband 0]

I had my lapband done in 2004. I have weighed the same 115 lbs since Aug 2005. I only had 3 fills done the first year. Are there any other long timers with the band? Any long term effects? All of my medical issues disapeared back in 2004 after the band. I went to Oasis of Hope in Mexico because I was not the required 100lbs overweight but I had 2 heart attacks with no health insurance. I started at 170 and ended at 115 and have weighed the same for almost 3 years. I would love to find others with the same back ground.

Welcome to LBT. I am not a long timer but we have quite a few on here that I am sure will be able to give their 2 cents

THAT IS AWESOME!!! I sure hope one day I can post saying I am at my goal weight of 150 lbs. I am well on my way!!! I have lost 31 lbs so far and I know that this was the best decision of my life.
