Hello Fellow banders

Hi Everyone,

My name is Emma and I live in Auckland, New Zealand.

Banded in September 2005 and have currently lost 48 kilos or 105 pounds and would like to lose a further 20 kg.

Start weight 152 kg 335 pounds.

I had a baby in April 2007 which would not have happened if had not had this surgery. Gained 20 kilos during pregnancy and lost soon after.

I have had no issues with this operation and it is still the best thing I could have done.

Hope to talk to many of you.

Emma
