City: Evansville State: IN | Thanks Janet! I love this site! Reading all the info and personal experiences on this site helped me in making my final decision to have the lap band. It's nice to have people to chat with that have been or are going through the same things.

Well Crystal - look at me - 65.5 in 6 months and I could be your Mom (my son will be 37 in July) - You have the benefit of youth in your favor - so go for it - it's work - but the rewards sure out weigh the sacrifices....

City: Wrightsville State: Pennsylvania | I just recently started posting here on LBT, but technically I started in the 100+ category. I'm happy to be down in the 50-100's  7 more lbs. and I can "graduate" to the next level!

At first I never thought 170 was attainable - then never thought 160 was - but I now know that it is ...
IMHO - I would really strive for the healthy bmi - it's doable... but it's really up to you...
