I would like to thank you all for the kind comments! I am happy that I could be an inspiration to some of you. I am trying to get before and after pictures bit I am not sure how to shrink them down to the correct size. My Dr. is going to put me on his web site. I would like to wish you all much success with your weight loss, it is such an exciting time!!!

I wanted to also answer a couple of questions that were asked....

I have not reached my goal, I want to loose another 25 pounds (veru douable :0) ). I am not sure what they do when you reach your goal. I had 4 fills and 1 unfill. I do have some saggy skin but I am hoping that will tighten up with exercise...I wish I had been excersing more over the last year. After surgery I felt like there was slight restriction but that went away after the swelling went away. My first fill gave me some restriction, I started feeling hungrier so I git the second fill. My third fill was almost perfect, so I figured one more would but perfect. The fourth fill was great at first but ended up being too tight so Iasked my doctor to take some out. I current have 5.5cc in my 10cc band.

Way to go Alison! :thumbup:It's not bragging, it's reporting. We bandsters, especially newbies like me, want to hear about the success stories. I hope you keep on this site and continue to inspire newbies like myself and even ones who've had it for a while but haven't worked it quite as well as you.
