My Lapband Journey started on Feb 26, 2009 that was the first day of the rest of my life. My Starting weight was 235 lbs. I've lost 33 pounds. I now weight 199 lbs (onederland). I have 50 lbs to go, to meet my goal weight. My first fill was April 7th I 'm at 4cc's and my second fill is scheduled for May 8th. I workout faithfully 5 to 6 days a week for an hour, I walk 3 to 4 miles. I do 10 min of Ab workout every night. I'm truly Living and Lovin LapBand. And I would like to wish everyone else much success on your Journey.
