Amanda lost 141 lbs!

I tried every weight-loss program that you can imagine. Each time I would lose weight but I’d always gain it back – plus more. After years of yo-yo dieting I topped the scales at 304 lbs. I could have had Gastric Bypass, but from my nursing experience I knew risks associated with it. The LAP-BAND® was the right choice for me. Since my surgery I have gone from a size 30 to size 14. I’ve lost the weight and I’m keeping it off!

Brooke lost 160 lbs!

I was tired of living life at 292 lbs.  I had success with other weight-loss methods, but none worked long-term.  I did not want to embarrass my son one day.  I wanted to be healthy, and I wanted the woman on the outside to match the one on the inside.  As a nurse I researched and loved the fact that the LAP-BAND® was the safest surgery and that it was adjustable.  I have lost 160 lbs. since my surgery, and…I really love the way I look.

Cyndi lost 115 lbs!

At 291 lbs I feared my son would soon be embarrassed to have a severely overweight mom and maybe ever start to resent me. Other sincere offers to lose weight were not working and I knew I had to do something. I started looking in to gastric bypass, but was not impressed with the idea of having my insides rearranged. I chose the LAP-BAND® because it is minimally invasive and can be adjusted. I’ve lost 115 lbs and the LAP-BAND® has helped me achieve my health, fitness and emotional goals.

Dan lost 170 lbs!

Growing up my activities kept me in shape and my weight down. When I got out of school I got out of sports, and other priorities took over my life and the weight piled on. I tried all the fad diets, most with little or no success. Then I learned about the LAP-BAND® System. At first I had trouble believing that with the LAP-BAND® the weight would not come back, that is was not a diet but a tool, and that I was in total control of my weight loss. Ther LAP-BAND® is still there help me maintain my weight loss for the rest of my life.

Robin lost 150 lbs!

I felt the gastric bypass was too drastic and when I heard about the LAP-BAND®, I knew immediately it was perfect. I knew that the LAP-BAND® would help me lose weight with reduced food intake without the starvation and depravation. Now, three and a half years after LAP-BAND® surgery, I feel like a totally transformed person! The LAP-BAND® changed my life.
