Hi. My name is Laura. I am 26 years old and had my band placed in October of 2007. I have lost 55-60 lbs within the last year. It took a long time but I'm getting there. :blush:

HI Laura My name is Dee, is this what the doctor told you on your weight lost this seems like a long time it has been a year right. Iam ready to have mine done as soon as my insurance approves it. Are you happy with the results, what is it that you don't like. thanks Dee

Hey Dee. It took a long time to find my "sweet spot" with the band. This only recently happened. After surgery I could almost eat like normal. It's definitely a learning process. I had to have Fluid take out of my band yesterday because I haven't been able to eat for the last month. It's been hard. But there are many pluses as well. It teaches you how to eat and why you're eating. That emotional eating doesn't work anymore.

Good Luck! If you have any questions, let me know.

Laura
