I just scheduled my lap band surgery for December 12th. Figured I would come and introduce myself to the forum!

I am Andrew Smith from Hillsdale' date=' Michigan. I am a graduate of Western Michigan University with a BS in Geography. I am currently married to my wonderful wife, Laura, who has also had lap band done![/quote']

Hi Andrew,

You can do it ... Consistency in exercise ... I have dropped over 250 (still dropping) and my sister www.300poundsdown.com is almost 200 down so far w/ "30 Seconds to Victory"

Hope in Your Future is Power in Your Present!

Hey to you all! Thanks for the update, Andrew! And congrats to all you former "fatties" who have lost many more pounds than me. Wow! you are my heroes. I know that you all are very proud, tell us about some of your NSV's. Andrew already has because he has job working with kids that he would not have been able to do at 420. Give us more!!! Love to hear them! Best wishes to all. Karen

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
