Hi all! I used to HATE when people did not post for a long time, but here I am doing the same thing...

I always knew this would be a fight everyday of my life, and it has... I am today 4 years out and completely satisfied I chose the lap band as a tool to help me be at a " normal" size...

 

Today I am about 185 lbs... That is about 20 to 25 lbs from my goal and I still believe I can get there...

(Much better than 292!)

 

I am completely obsessed with ZUMBA and burn many calories that way... I also started running on a few 5K and did one half marathon which was a killer! 

 

I am active and happy, and THANK GOD very healthy…

My band issues are a little heartburn if I eat too late or the band is too tight…

I might try tightening it a bit soon

 

I cannot even fathom not having my band… it has saved me from myself!

Hope you are all working hard with your tool as well… and remember…

 

It will NOT do the work for us, but it does HELP us keep on track….

 

Love to all!
