Hey there,

I was banded in June 2007 and have since lost 65 lbs. My weight loss was stagnant for aproximately 6 months but I recently got back on track and lost another 10 lbs. and am feeling great about myself again. I had my surgery at Credit Valley hospital in Toronto and my only regret was that I didn't access outside support from fellow bandsters before now. I didn't tell anyone about my surgery for fear of having judgements made and having to explain myself to people. This was a very personal decision and wanted to keep my weight loss issues to myself. I think that it was the best decision for me but am very happy to be able to communicate with people who share the same concerns and issues. Its just one of those things that you actually have to live through to understand. I'm looking for some motivation from fellow bandsters to keep losing those pounds! I hope to lose another 20 lbs before next June my year two anniversary!

I am here to say way to go! It is half of the battle to know you were off track and to find your way back. Congrats on the 65lb weight loss and i hope that you will lose all that you are aiming for.
