Teresa's Success Story

Teresa was banded in February of 2008 as a 36-year-old wife and mother of two. She knows all too well the relationship between food and family and the pitfalls that come with gathering around the dinner table to commemorate practically any occasion. As a nurse practitioner, she also knows all to well the serious health risks that surround her obesity and metabolic disease.

Shortly after surgery, Teresa was blessed with the wonderful news that she was expecting her third child. Follow her blogs to see how easy it is to accomodate pregnancy after the LAP-BAND.

With the new baby here, Teresa is now able to focus and utilize the LAP-BAND as a life changing tool. Share Teresa's story by viewing her surgery video and following her video blog, which will chronicle her entire experience.
