NAWLS Network

Social and Professional Network for the Weight Loss Surgery Community

I was banded on 26 Oct. 07 by Doctor David Treen. I was 234 pounds and 5 foot 2 inches tall. I couldn't walk more then about a 1/2 a block without being winded. My back, knees and feet hurt all the time. My self esteem was so low that I didn't have any sort of social life. I now weigh 166 pounds and I go to the fitness center 5 days a week ( the last 4 months) and I feel so much better. My husband was also banded 6 months before me on May 19th of 07. He had sleep apnea so bad the the cpap machine didn't help anymore. and high blood pressure. Gary was 305 pounds. He now weighs 175 and is off the BP Meds and no more breathing machine. God bless our bands!

You two look great. I just had my lapband surgery in February but have lost about 50 pounds. Hopefully I will be as successful as you!
