Doug: LAP-BAND Surgery
LAP-BAND Surgery: October 2008
Weight Loss: 195 lbs
I received my Lap Band on October 27, 2006. Since then all the medications for pulmonary problems I had have been discontinued and no longer necessary. I have also lost 195 pounds! This incredible journey has added so much quality to my life. Along with my wife Marty, I am able to go and do things that in the past were virtually impossible. My starting weight was 440 pounds, so in effect I have lost an entire adult. I have yet to have a bad day as a result of the surgery. From the time I started the process, the people at Dr. Bagnato’s office and the Obesity Treatment Center have gone far and above any expectations I could have ever had. The personal and professional care shown to me has made my experience all the more fulfilling. I would highly recommend this procedure to anyone who like me, is tired of all the different diets that do not work, that can also have detrimental effects on your health.
