I received my band 05/2005, and four years later, I am at 127 pounds. I may have gone up 5 pounds here and there, but always get down to my goal weight.
Good Luck

Judy, thank you for remembering my goal-ness. I was banded May 2006 and declared goal in December 2007 within 4 lbs of my original goal. I am still within a couple of lbs of that goal,

I got my band in September of 2005, reached my goal of 165 a year and a half later, had my band baby boy in September of 2008 and am currently 3 pounds higher than my goal. Here's a comparison photo taken this past February.

P.S. I only gained 14 pounds during my pregnancy.
