It has been 19 months since my procedure, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I have been overweight my whole life and now, after losing over 100 pounds, I finally feel like the real me. Shopping is fun again! I enjoy spending time outside actually doing things instead of watching life happen around me. I wasted a lot of time complaining about my weight, but as soon as I took the first step (in the right direction) I have not looked back! My only regret is that I did not do this for myself when I was in my 20’s. I have had opportunity to share the Lap Band experience with several friends and co-workers.  I am so thankful to Palmyra Surgical, Dr. Bagnato and his awesome team for their support through this life changing experience. I can’t thank you enough! For anyone who is reading this, and thinking about taking that first step – you are worth it!  GO FOR IT!!
