1 Month Post-Op

highest weight - 318

weight before pre-op diet - 294

weight before surgery - 274

current weight - 247

I can't believe it's been a month since my surgery. I feel absolutely amazing..and look pretty amazing too. I bought myself a gym pass this past week, the first time I went I did get a little light headed but it's all good now. This week I went shopping for some new clothes. I bought myself size 16 jeans (was a 22) and some L/XL shirts (was a 3X). At first I thought I would need some sort of reconstructive surgery but my skin is not loose or saggy at all. I guess it's true what they say age and length of obesity really does play a part in skin elasticity.

LAP-BAND Patients

Hey, if no one else is following your blog, they should have, even if you gave up on it, because it was real informative. I can only speculate that you have gotten so into life, that you no longer sit at the computer any more. Hurray!

LAP-BAND Patients

I had my surgery on March 14th so I am about a week behind you. How much have you lost...it sounds like we were about the same size. I was wearing a 2x and now I can wear some xl blouses. My weight loss is going slower now and sometimes I am starving and wonder if I eat too much. I still can't take my vitamins...have you been able to take them? They just upset my stomach right now. I look and feel so much better though and know that in 3 weeks I won't feel so food deprived...lol. I have lost a total of 24 pounds (I weigh 200.5)...I so wanted to get down to 199 on my 3 week anniversary which was yesterday and was a little disapointed when my weight has been the same all week. I know in a couple days it will drop a couple so I am trying to be patient.
