This day is more important to me than my wedding anniversary...I've never had problems with succeeding at relationships, but weight loss was a different story. I love my LapBand and I'm so proud of myself for accomplishing my life long goal of being a normal-sized person. Today, this 43-year old woman is the same size I was when I was in 8th grade and I'm loving it!! It feels so awesome getting better with age :)

    I have had mine about a year and a half. I love mine too and have never regretted it a minute. I don't think I would ever have found the will power on my own. I want to loose about another 20 lbs or so but just cant! I cant exercise much right now due to an accident, so I am just trying to limit calories. Its just not budging. but, I think I will get there eventually. Your post is really encouraging to me. I hope at the 5 year mark I am as successful.
