Well I was banded on 11/24/08 and I think it was the best decision I ever made. I am now 1 week post-op and down 18 pounds!! I feel great and I even look much better my dr in NJ is Dr.Borao I would recommend him to anyone hes the greatest and talk about a dr thats always by yourside... <33

Well im only 18 and i weighed 194 pre op and technically shouldnt have been banded but I was addicted to food and wouldve never lost it on my own so therefore it probably saved my life cause at 18 with sky high cholesterol and tryglicerides I was headed for despair so I really think lap band in the long run saved my life.. Well its 3:20am here in NJ so I better get some sleep because i have to be up at 8:30am to walk so ttyl :thumbup:dont be strangers. xO:thumbup:

Hi Kyley. Sounds like you are doing awesome! Even if you do like to print in tiny tiny font so old farts like me have a hard time reading, LOL !!

Wow, Kyley. Thats' fantastic weight loss after only a week! I'm new to this site, hope to get approval for lap band in the next few days. I've pestered my doctor for over a month now to get me approved, and he's hemmed and hawed, asking 2x what I've done in the past to lose weight, then asked me again, like I hadn't already told him!

Hoping I'll have better luck in the future, or I'm changing ins!

Best of luck to you with continued weight loss and great health! Katie:thumbs_up:

      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.
