Weight loss after Lap Band

Hi everyone. I am new to this site and am having Lap band surgery September 1rst. This is my first blog and just wondering about successes of everyone for some inspiration. How much has everyone lost and how long did it take you? What type of exercise did you do and what was a typical day as far as eating?:sneaky:

Welcome to LBT Amanda! Take a look at the 'before'/'after' thread on the home page for some pics and inspiration. Make sure you join the Sept. group (Groups, 2009, September).

I'm 3 months post-op and 52 pounds down (33 since surgery). I have good restriction now after my third fill. Best Wishes! -BG

Hi & Welcome!

I am about 2 1/2 months post op! I have lost 57 pounds and my husband (had lap band the same day!) has lost about 50 pounds. I WOULD do it all over again. My normal day is yogurt for breakfast, soup or chicken salad or lunch, and for dinner either turkey burgers, turkey meat with whole wheat pasta with some tomoatoes sauce (this is really good) or baked or barbequed chicken breast. I really have not been that hungry. I also eat fruit when I just want something to eat. Exercise has been a struggle for me but I do get some walking and swimming in. Good Luck and keep us posted.

Thanks for the comments. I have lost 4 lbs this last week just from cutting soda from my diet. Monday I start my pre-op diet of liquids. I am also going to start walking on my treadmill. Can't wait til September 1rst.
