Go you!!!!!!

The last couple days were the hardest for me. I kept myself super busy and before I knew it i was at the hospital being prepped. YOU CAN DO IT!

I was in Germany recently and met a woman who had also had the band. She told me that most of Europe is going with the sleeve now. In the end it's a personal preference but definitely worth looking into

Way to go rockstar! I'm a year out too. It's been great watching the pounds call off

Nothing wrong with having a little taken out. As long as you stick to portion control you will be golden.

Just keep moving! The week following surgery I just kept wandering around my house all day. Gas was gone in no time.

How is the recovery so far?

Thanks! :-D

Don't have it out! It's not always easy transferring to a new Bariatric program but definitely look into

It's like any other shot. Hurts a little for a sec then it's done. I just use what little pain there is as a reminder to take this seriously. Some docs say liquids/soft foods for 48 hours post fill and some don't. I would recommend doing it either way. Best!

November 30 was my 1 year anniversary of having my band put in! I started out at 307 lbs and on August 30 2012 I hit my goal of 175 lbs! I am still holding steady at 175 and couldnt be happier! I went from buying pants that were 44" waist to presently buying 34"! Here I am on surgery day And here I am on Nov 30 of this year sausmas.bmp

Happy 1 year Surgiversarry! How has it been the past year?
