I was banded on Dec. 3rd. I had my first weigh in this morning and I have lost 30 pounds. My last weigh was November 17th at my pre-op appointment. I am so excited, I have lost a total of 50 pounds since August when I started my 3 month clinical weight loss required by the insurance company.

Congratulations, I was banded on 12/3/2010. I feel the same way you do. I am both excited and nervous about my new lifestyle. How are you feeling physically? Greetings! I was banded on 12/2/2010. I am so glad I found this forum! I am looking forward to meeting many new, supportive friends. Right now I am nervous, scared, and anxious. I am so excited to begin this next chapter of my life! My surgeon was Dr. Burry and he was incredible. I have my first fill appointment scheduled for 1/6/2011. My weight before surgery was 284 and I am now down to 272! I decided to have the lap-band to of course lose weight and have a healthier lifestyle. I also did this because I have a 3 yr. old daughter and want to be active with her. I look forward to meeting you all and sharing this journey together!

Hello all, I am a newbie......I just got banded three days ago. I am still having some pain but it's getting better day by day. The hardest part is getting in and out of the bed. Don't really have an appetite for anything so I've been eating ice chips and sipping on water and broth as best I can. Is what I'm experiencing normal?
