cookieshay 0 Posted June 27, 2009 I have stopped past the site a couple of times before but I never chimed in on anything. I was banded January 16, 2009. So far I have lost 43.7 pounds. I had a goal of 50 pounds by June 28. I did not make it but I am proud of what I have accomplished. I have high hopes for my new healthier life and hope that anyone else that chose WLS does too.

serenity55 15 Posted June 29, 2009 Congratulations, Cookieshay! 43 pounds is something you can definitely be proud of. I hope you'll feel comfortable enough to join in and share some of your experiences, what your surgery was like, how you're doing, all that good stuff. Also, there is a forum for people banded in January. It's under the 2009 bandsters. You can find people who were banded the same day as you. good luck, and hope to read more of your posts.
