  1. Glad you are doing so good, I've lost 25 pounds since April. I can eat anything and everything except bread unless it is toasted. I hope when I get my second fill I won't be able to eat as much. I am only losing about a pound a week if that. I guess that is better than gaining.

  2. My surgery went very well. My computer on the other hand crashed. It has been three weeks and I've lost about 15 pounds. I feel really good. I hope you are doing well.

  3. I'm glad to hear you are doing good. I had my surgery April 18th and did very well. My computer crashed so I just try to check on everyone whenever I'm around a family member with a computer. I hope you continue to do good.

  4. I had my surgery April 18th. I didn't have any problems and lost about 15 pounds. I feel great! I have noticed when I am around food and sweets at work wanting some of it is mostly just out of habit and in my mind so I try to focus on how bad the fat and sugar is for my health and can usually just walk away. I hope you are doing well.

  5. Three weeks post-op. I'm doing great, didn't have any problems, only one incision at my belly button. I've lost about 15 pounds and pray it keeps coming off. My computer is not working so until I can get another one I'll post when I can use someone elses. I hope everyone is doing fine and losing weight.

  6. I enjoyed reading your posts, my surgery is Monday and I hope I have a good experience. I have heard a lot about the trapped air and hope I can walk it off. Thanks for posting it is very encouraging. I would like for you to add me as your friend if you would.

  7. I'm glad you posted, my surgery is Monday and I am scared of the pain from the gas/air. I know walking is suppose to help but when I had that pain from a different surgery nothing helped. I will of course walk as much as I can and have my heating pad close by like others suggested. I am glad you are fine and hope you keep posting your progress. You can add my as a friend if you would like to.

  8. I enjoyed your comments and hope you keep posting your progress. I would also like for you to add me as your friend. I will be having surgery Monday.

  10. Just wondering how you are doing on your journey, I hope you will post your progress. I will be having surgery Monday and all the information I get from this site is great.

  11. Someone also told me that unjury protein powder mixed with silk almond milk was good.
  12. I found a butter pecan Glucerna shake at Walmart that tastes better than any of the others, you can't find it at all Walmarts but its worth the ride to go to another town if they carry it, I would call first though.
  13. Thank you for the info on unjury and silk almond, that sounds good. I did find an classic Butter pecan Glucerna shake at Walmart but it is hard to find although it is worth a trip to another town because it is the best tasting one I have found.

  14. I have enjoyed reading your comments, I hope everything goes well with you, I will be having my surgery Monday.

  15. I have enjoyed reading your posts and hope you will continue to share your progress, I am having surgery on Monday also. We will all be fine.

  17. Hi Crystal, I know how you feel, I have been on so many diets and lost so much weight in my life but always gained it back. I really believe the lapband will help because we won't feel so hungry. I am also 53 years old but I feel so much younger inside. I have several friends that have had it done and they are doing great.

  18. Hi, I am also son the pre-op liquid diet, I hate to say it but there really aren't any protein shakes that taste good. I will be having my surgery Monday and just keep taking one day at a time and focusing on the day I can eat a little and stop drinking those shakes. Good luck to you.

  19. By now you have had your surgery, I hope you are doing well and post your progress. I will be having my surgery Monday. I've been on a liquid diet all week. Every Dr. is different just follow his instructions.

    Hi everyone!

    Welcome and I hope its smooth sailing from now on, I will be getting my band Monday and look forward to sharing my progress. So far it has been a lot of paper work and Dr. visits, I'll be glad when its all over and I can begin my new life of getting healthy. Good luck to you.
  21. Hi Darah, I'm new to this site and still trying to figure out how to talk to people, anyway I work for a large company and know 5 people that had the lapband surgery. I was going to get it done last year but decided I would try on my own one more time and for the zillionth time I lost weight and then put it right back on. I'm tired of starving to lose it and then eating like crazy again. I believe this will really help me to control my overeating. I am on my 5th day of preop diet and all I can have is 3 protien shakes and 1 sugar free jello or yogurt but some people eat more than that it depends on the dr.
  22. Sorry I messed up trying to post a comment, I'm new to this but I hope I will get better and make some friends, I need all the encouragement I can get.
  23. I know how you feel, this is my 5th day and all I can have is 3 protien shakes and 1 sugar free Jello or yogurt. The protien shake make me sick so that helps my hunger. I know several people who have been through this and they say its worth it so hang in there.
  24. This is my second day of the liquid diet, my surgery is Monday the 18th of April. I really enjoy this site and hope to make some friends. I am 53 years old, I have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. I'm getting nervous about this whole life style change but I know I have to do something different then what I've been doing all my life. I have lost weight with diet pills and crazy diets but always gained it back, I am looking forward to losing it forever.
  25. Hello everyone, I have been reading a lot of posts and it has helped ease my anxiety about having this surgery. I start my liquid diet tomorrow and I'm worried about being hungry. My surgery is set for 04-18-11.
