{{/* BP structured-data corrections, 2026-08-04. buildMetaTags() runs in Dispatcher\Front before the head renders, and includeJS serialises Output::i()->jsonLd at the end of body, so mutating the array here is what actually ships. This replaces what were core edits in system/Output/Output.php and therefore survives Invision upgrades. */}} {{/* 1.

If an app already published a BreadcrumbList, core's own serialisation of the display breadcrumbs is a second, conflicting one. The surgeons geo pages render breadcrumbs narrowest-first by design, so core's came out reversed. */}} {{/* Canonical and Open Graph fallbacks. An empty jsonLd on a rendered front page means buildMetaTags() never ran, which is how Output::error() renders. Treating that as "do not add a canonical" fails safe: the worst case is a page without a canonical, which is where we started. */}} Skip to content

  1. One Year and Five months post surgery??

    almostskinny replied to rassy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    [i had my 10cc band placed on 8/24/10 it is a slow process however it is the best thing that I have ever done weight loss related. I find that it is hard to stay away from the chocolate and other sweets, but holidays are over and they wont be lying around so much. Keep trying and listen to your band it works just be patient this time around.

    I know what you mean.. I did not gain over the holiday's however I did not loose anything either and I am so frusterated ... I have lost a total of 52 lbs so far and can't wait for the other 60 to come off. The whole restricted and then not restricted is frusterating. I have had a total of 4 fills and am curr at 8 cc's in my 12 cc band and I feel this is perfect I'm not to hungry and not to full. However I did notice the other day that it is more restricted lately so Im thinking Im eating to fast or something.It is something to get used to.

  4. Restriction... No wait... No restriction!
