Testimonials - What Lap Band Patients Have to Say

I was banded in December 2003. At that time I found myself gaining weight and pretty much unable to stop my upward climb. I knew I had to stop or my health would be in jeopardy. I had a very good friend who had the band and was successful in losing over 100 pounds. She was my mentor and went with me to have the procedure. Since then the battle to lose has not been easy but it has been steady. I love the fact that I have to eat slowly. I love the fact that I have to stop before the plate is empty. Combined with good food choices, these make the band a powerful tool for weight loss.

I am still on my weight loss journey but it continues to be a journey downward and I can see myself reaching my goal in the not too distant future. I wouldn't hesitate to encourage anyone with a weight problem to have this surgery and use the band as an aide to overcoming the difficulties of weight loss.
