Hi Bette, Congrats! 150 pounds, regardless of the method, is FABOO! I hope you're just as proud of yourself as I am. You go girl! -Deb

Hi Angela: So glad you found Bette's profile and read it. Bette is a true testament to how the lapband can work. As well, her spirit truely shines through, welcoming each of us to step up to the challenge of getting healthy... and WITH FUN! Bette is one of my most favorite people. And if you read, Bob's profile you will see he is a wonderful example of how gastric bypass can work as well. Two examples of how this WLS thing works, and great people to boot!! Angela, good lucK with your journey to health. Towanda
