  9. Why does the gallbladder give us problems after weight loss? Does the liver begin to dump stuff?
  10. I told everyone. I work in the surgery dept where my Dr does weight loss surgery. Helps keep me on my toes ! Accountability! My family was very supportive. I'm hoping I can inspire just one person that feels its hopeless to lose weight and get their health back and then turns to the band for help and gives it their all...many people on here have inspired me. :0)
  11. Have you tried sit ups on an exercise ball? They are easy to do with no stress on your back. Also exercise bands which provide resistance training, dumbells for triceps and biceps
  12. Such a great post! I can DEFINATELY relate. I too felt like I lived in a deep dark cave with no way out---depressed about the way I looked so I would eat, I would feel a little better, then look in the mirror and see a fat ugly person and get depressed, so I would eat to feel better. Finally the eating part DIdnt make me feel better anymore but worse! So all that was left was deep darkness. It was a vicious cycle with no one to blame but myself. I'm never going back to that cave! Thank you for your post and congratulations! Your an inspiration! Banded nov 7th 2012. Loss -79 pounds. Finally a size 12!
  13. Hello England! All my mothers side are British and I was born in England- Manchester ... Yea I know a rival of Liverpool ! I have several cousins there. Half for Liverpool....
  14. COMGRATULATIONS to you all! I thought this would be good infoation for anyone still thinking about getting the lapband and wanted some "evidence based" results !!
  15. Pre lapband my blood pressure was 210/103 and my fasting blood sugar was 138. Since getting the lapband Nov 7 2012 I have lost 79 pounds, and have lowered my blood pressure to 135/70 and my fasting blood sugar is 90! Yay!
