Hello to all, :help:I am new to this forum and I am curious if anyone else has had this problem. I take vitams, watch what I take in, and try to get 6-8 hours of sleep a night but I am still tired. I can't make it passed 2pm without nodding. What can i do? How do you guys get all of the info(BMI,weight loss) on your post?

I have BC/BS of GA Federal PPO. I had a BMI of 35. I had to get a letter of neccessity from my doctor stating my comorbidities and that she felt Lapband Bariatric surgery was by best option. I also had to write a letter detailing my various attempts at weight loss along with starting/ending weights. I have asthma, arthritus, sleep apnea, and lymphadema. After sending all information in, I got approval to do the surgery(took 2 weeks). There is hope.

I was banded July 13, 2007 (LUCKY FRIDAY THE 13TH). I lossed 14 lbs prior to surgery. It has been almost 3 weeks and I have lossed an additional 21 lbs. I am need to lose another 30-35 lbs to be satisfied but want to possibly lose another 45. My wife wants me to lose another 20 however I been the big guy for a long time and now i want to be small. IMy procedure was done in Atlanta, GA by Dr. Edward Linn at Emory University. I have been completely satisfied. I can say at this time this is one of the best decisions I have ever made. :whoo:

I could eat eggs immediately after liquid diet. You do not want to drink beer. The carbonate will strectch your pouch and create pain. I love beer and it hasn't been too hard to give it up. NO SODA's, Beer, or other carbonated drinks.

35lbs in 1 month.....i am so excited

It will go away after you get your fluids up. Drink more
