Hi everyone, I had gastric banding surgery january 2002. I have lost 110 lbs. and have been able to maintain my weight loss for over a year. That is something I have never been able to do before. I have eliminated all but one pill from the list of medications I used to take. My diabetes is in remission. I am no longer have high blood pressure. I no longer get short of breath climbing stairs. I feel wonderful. Since I have been given this powerful tool to lose weight it has made it easier for me to eat healthy and maintain my weight loss. I still get hungry from time to time but I have found lo cal ways to deal with it. It is so nice to buy clothes that fit and not shopping in the plus size section. Mona Urwin
