    I wish I had known...

    I learned the hard way that I could no longer eat scrambled eggs. Boiled eggs are ok

    @ I started at 191, I only lost about one pound a week, but I preferred it to come off slowly, chances are better for it to stay off.....trust me I am at a point now that I don't want to lose anymore weight. I went from wearing 12/14 to 2/zero.... You will get there....

    Night Time Restriction

    I don't have a problem a night, but I usually can't eat solids until around noon.

    Cant Stop Eating Choc

    Your body is probably lacking some electrolytes and minerals, which cause the cravings....

    has anyone gotten the lapband to loose 50 pounds

    I was a size 14 and could wear some 12....I wear a size 4 except at NY & Company and Old Navy I wear a size 2. Before the surgery I was going to be happy with a size 8. I really don't want to go below a size 2 but at this rate it's probably going to happen.

    has anyone gotten the lapband to loose 50 pounds

    I will surely keep you in my prayers. The weight lost is slow but steady about 4-5 pounds a month for me. I am 147 this morning, can't believe I am wearing a size 4.....I didn't do any special kind of diet, I still eat whatever I want, the only difference is the amount I am able to eat. Maybe if I would have changed my diet, I would have lost the weight quicker. If I had the ability to do that.....I probably wouldn't have needed the band. Best of luck and wishes to you on Wed. P.S. Replacing clothes is the hard thing to do.
  15. I am almost at goal weight. I can feel my port but it does not stick out at all....
  16. Keep up the great work!

  17. Great front office staff as well.
  18. Dr. Gorjala performed my surgery on 11/16/11. He has great bedside manners and actually talks to you and is genuinely interested in you being successful. Great doctor and person. Love himmmmm

    has anyone gotten the lapband to loose 50 pounds

    Sorry, I haven't been on in a while. I was banded on 11/17/11, my goal is to have my BMI slightly below 25. I weighed myself this morning and I am 161. I also changed my goal to 141 so that would be a 50 pond weight lost. I am more than half way to my goal. Looking forward to seeing the scale once I hit under 160. The weight lost has been slow but that is my preference, more likely to keep it off.

    November Bandsters!!!

    Good luck. I just had mine today 11/17/11. At the hospital at 9:45 AM and left the same day at 2:15 pm. Feeling really good, walking with no problem, very little shoulder/gas pain at this point.
  21. Hi

    I am located in Ellenwood, GA about 7 miles south of Atlanta. I located a great surgeon that is offering a special $9999 until the end of the year. My lap band is scheduled for tomorrow (11/17/11)......please feel free to ask any other questions.
