Did you develop GERD or did it worsen after surgery?
Lady VS replied to Cleo's Mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did have a hernia repair at the time of my surgery. I did not nor have been diagnosed to having GERD. I am four years and two months post op and still losing weight and feeling great. Sorry for any problems that you may be having or experiencing that is causing you to change from the LapBand to the Sleeve. -
No weight loss in a week and a half
Lady VS replied to sweetgagrl00's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow! Right now your focus should be getting better not losing weight. Your overall health is essential for weight loss. Stay in bed if possible and drink plenty of fluids. Once you are feeling like your old self you can then get back to focusing on weight loss. Congratulations on what you have lost so far and continued success. -
Still work in progress...

Today is my Bandiversary!
Lady VS replied to gowalking's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Awesome testimony of how the band truly changes and saves lives. Happy two years and more. -
Well Thomas I'm sorry you're having so many problems with the band. If you're really serious about weight loss maybe you should consider having the sleeve done. Best wishes to you.

Congratulations!!! You look fabulous.

The reason I have been so successful for these past four years and two weeks is because I saw my bariatric team every month for the first two and a half years of my journey. I read my Lapband book over and over that I was given pre-op and I watched what I ate (sometimes). I have learned to really pay attention to my body to realize when enough is enough. Yes there are days when I literally eat all day and then there are days like these past few that I just can't or don't feel like eating so I don't. If you are consistently hungry then it sounds like you need a fill. Best wishes to you.

Wow!!! Congratulations!!!!

Aww, thanks. It can be done. It's hard at first but as the years pass, it gets easier. Continued success to you.

Tornado hits day after surgey.
Lady VS replied to sonosuzy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Losing 5lbs is great. You had a Lapband placed in not gastric bypass. You are going to lose a little bit over time unlike gastric bypass. You are doing fine. Keep following your doctor's orders and all will be well. Prayers to you and your town. -
And here I am the day before new year's Eve and I've lost another pound. I can't believe it. I have been a little bit tighter these past couple days. I guess because of the colder temperatures.

Feeling really excited about my sleeve
Lady VS replied to A. Stoot's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Congratulations sis!!!! You're well on your way to getting the weight off and keeping it off. I'm so proud of and for you. Continued success!!! -
Oh dear we've all been there and done that. That's why there are no regrets. I'm glad I had surgery when I did because it was the right time for me. I all it all to God and no one else. Your pains will be over soon. Best wishes, congratulations on being banded and good luck.

A fill under fluoro is always best so yes by all means have it done. Hope there's not anything major that has happened. Good luck to you.
