An six weeks post op and am down 30lbs since my surgery. Is this too much? Will it slow down soon? I am not worried or anything but just want to know if anyone else has had this much of a weight loss this quickly that started out about the same weight as me. I started at 257 and now I am 226!!! I am extremely happy but just curious...I am going back home to visit my family in three weeks and I had a goal to lose 30 lbs before I went and I have reached my vet first weight loss goal and couldn't b happier and even happier that I may exceed my goal in the next three weeks!!! YAY!!! Love my lap band

I'm so sorry to hear this as I know exactly how u feel. We had a Malamute named Lupa for 11 years. Before we had any of our kids and she was my baby. She passed away on March 12, 2011. We think she had a stroke and we took her to the vet to get checked out and he confirmed that she did have a stoke. We had her in the back of our van and were going to have her put to sleep to end her suffering and the vet was gonna do it in our van to keep her more comfortable and to keep her from getting more scared. He went in to get the things he needed and she ended up having another stroke and passed away with her head in my husbands arms. We didn't want to put her down and I'm glad that she went on her own so that we knew we would've made the right decision because it would've been one of the hardest decision of my life. She had a good life and we always treated her as one of the kids and as a big part of out family. I know this doesn't make u feel any better but I just wanted to let u know that I know how it feels and u and Your family will b in my thoughts. (((HUGS)))

I really hope that question was a joke but here is my answer....I feel I need to eat to keep my energy level up and so being on an airplane for hours with my tummy rumbling will not happen and make it even more uncomfortable to b on a cramped airplane.....trying to make my trip a little more tolerable

Am going on a trip in about 3 &1/2 weeks and am having a hard time thinking of some foods that I can take on the airplane with me. My total trip will take almost 9 hours so I need to take something with me. I have thought that I could take some cheese sticks and nuts but does anyone have any other ideas for what I could take that will meet airline rules? Any ideas are greatly appreciated thanks

Had to go buy a couple pair of new jeans today because my old ones were just getting way too loose and I got sick of pulling them up or feeling like there was a load in the back lol....my old pants were a size 20...today I had to get 16's!!!!!! I was so shocked!!!! I tried on 18's and thought they were ok until my husband informed me that there was like a two or three inch gap at my back in the waist.....yes, the 16's r a tiny bit tight but if I keep losing weight, the 18's would b falling down in a month or two. I have not even been able to squeeze into a 16 since I don't remember when.....I am happy
