  1. 1 years has passed since you registered at SleevePlicationTalk! Happy 1st Anniversary Jlbrennan!

  2. Today is one year ago that I had surgery. I have lost 65 lbs which puts me at 188 lbs (I gained 2 lbs during the holidays from eating poorly:). I am 64.5 inches which still puts my BMI at just obese, but when I lose a few more pounds I will be just overweight:) my goal is to weigh around 150-155 lbs. I am very happy with my progress so far and still so happy I had this done before I developed diabetes, high blood pressure, or other medical problems associated with obesity! I am wearing a size 14/16 compared to a size 22 this time last year. My last fill was in June, and I actually had part of it unfilled a few days later because I was too tight. The lap band has been a huge blessing for me!

    NSV!!! Yeah!

    Yesterday, I was shopping at lane Bryant, and the store clerk asked me if I needed help. I told her I was looking for a particular shirt that the manequin was wearing. She told me to follow her, and she picked up the shirt and handed it to me and said "this is the smallest size we have" and handed me a size 14/16!!! She assumed I wear their smallest size!! I was beaming on the inside. I was banded on 12/31/2010 and have lost almost 40 lbs and was wearing a size 22 pants and 18/20 top, so this was exciting to me! Just wanted to share!!

    I Hate My Job!!!!

    Fluffytofabulous... I work in an endocrine office and the drug reps still cater lunches for everyday. The only laws that change are that they are no linger allowed to bring us goodies such as pens, cups, bags ect with their company name or drug on it.... But they can and still do bring in lunch almost everyday. It's tough! I have been ordering a meal and bringing it home for my husband though... I'm 3 weeks pist op and this has been a challenge... Walking away from the food St the office!
  10. Congrats! I am 19 days post op and have lost 10 lbs pre op on 2 weeks of liquid and 13 lbs since surgery... So down 23 lbs total which I'm happy about. I can eat about 1 cup of food at meals but try keeping it less. I get my first fill in 3 weeks

    Ladies what are you Dying to wear!!!!

    I can't wait to wear shorts instead of long capris in the summer and cute tank tops that fit!
  13. I have my first follow up post surgery (12/30) on Monday. I have only lost 12 lbs since surgery so hoping to get my fill soon. How long did y'all have to wait after surgery to get your fill?
  14. I agree with everyone here that we don't need the negativity that some posters bring to this site. I was banded a little over a week ago and still have questions and was excited to find this site for support. fTF was also new at one point as well and I'm sure had similar concerns of her own. I too use my iPhone to navigate the site, and it is not easy to find old posts. If she doesn't like the questions, why keep coming back to the site?
