4 months post op

It has been four months since my sugery I started this journey weighing in at 298.6 I now weigh 230 pounds yes still a long way to go. Right now I am looking to find more ways to recieve support our monthy support groups are great but more than 2 hours away and I need daily support and hoping to find ways to communicate about the band all my friends are skinny or dont have a weight problem. I just now relized there are other banders out there and people who have questions about having the LAP BAND, if I can help in any way I will be glad to. I am hoping that my experiances with the band might be able to help someone else and help me learn more too.

Hey Chrissy I am so happy for your lost WOW you are doing a great job. If you want more support you can check into your local TOPS chapter. They are a weight lost group, very inexpensive, that supports all types of weight lost. I have been with them for a little over 4 years now and I got my band last year, they were very supportive. Since then I have brought in our local lap band members and 4 of them joined. Weight loss is weight loss it is not easy no matter how you cut it. check out TOPS.com cost is $24 a year and then monthly dues, mine are $3 a month but chapters dictate the amount depending on if they have to pay rent where they meet. Good Luck Hun
