I have to say, I’ve been off the boards for a few years going about my merry life. Managing my weight was/is never easy but the band has been a miraculous tool. I’ve gone from 264 to 174 in the last four and a half years. These last 20-25 pounds are killer.

I’m deciding if I should get my leaking port replaced or go it alone to get rid of the remaining weight. When I found out checking the OH boards immediately came to mind. I was on here for months before and months after my surgery in August 2007 finding support. It’s so nice to see some of the same faces like Bette, Kate, and Jean.

Lap Band on 04/23/06

We all seem to drop out and then return. Think it depends on how busy our lives are at any given time. Lots of vets just pop in on their anniversaries.
