i also started around a 32 bmi- 152cm and about 75kg. i lost about 21kg over 5 months' date=' then i started exercising and didn't lose more weight, but dropped a dress size or two. i'm gaining again, but it's because i'm expecting. :D i think after the birth it will be easy to get back down because i had no trouble maintaining before i got pregnant.[/quote']

Hello! We have almost the same numbers! I'm almost 3 weeks post-op and I have lost 14 pounds, I'm kinda stuck though...I will have my first fill June 7th. 21kg is amazing!!!! Any advice for me? :)

I started the lap band consultations at a BMI of 33. The preop and post op phases i lost the most amount of weight in a relatively fast period and got into the healthy weight range in around 8 months, although at the higher end. It was a very slow to get down the final kilos to hit my ultimate target BMI of 22.5.

All up i have lost 1/3rd of my start weight.

      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!!
