Not WLS-related, but a victory nonetheless:
I PASSED MY EMT CLASS!

We now return you to our regular programming.

Banded since 2003, maintaining my weight loss and still knowing I made the right choice for me. If you want information on what life is like for a band success, have questions or need help and suggestions on band life, feel free to message me. Otherwise, just read the Lapband Forum.

Congratulations Bette, now perhaps life will have a different avenue for you and your husband. I hope you find gainful employment very very soon.
