I just had lap band surgery yesterday. My father had it done a little more than month ago, he has lost 22 pounds, he gained 4 pounds at the end of week 3 but it came right back off. He had his first fill yesterday and his doctor said the slight gain was totally normal.

This is totally normal, don't fret. Your body is going nuts right now from the low amount of calories you've been taking in. It needs a week or two to get on track. Everyone goes through this, don't worry! Good luck, and congratulations on joining the wls family

Me 3 tomorrow is my 2 week since RNY and had lost 12 pounds since surgery and no change since the weekend . Started a journel of all foods and liquids I am going to see the Dr Wed and will ask him ..But others are stating this is normall

I am also here in Ok I am in Owasso would love a buddy..

I'm a little shy of 2 weeks post op, which is Wednesday, and I've now moved on to my full liquid diet. I've added yogurt, cottage cheese, Soups, etc. Ever since adding these foods I've stopped loosing weight and at times gained a few pounds. During the clear liquid diet (pre-op and one week after surgery) I would loose almost a pound a day. This stall is heartbreaking because I feel like I'm already failing. Could it just be my body getting use to food or am I already eating too much?

I just posted something almost identical. We're in the same boat I'm 2 weeks out and I haven't lost anything in 5 days and gained a few pounds too! I also go in for my 2 week on Thursday!

@ronnie820- are you on fb?

Hi - scheduled for 8/20. Good luck to everyone!

I will be having my surgery on August 19th, 2015. Just starting my prep diet. Feeling super anxious at the moment!

Yes. Mine is booked for Aug 14th. Nervous and excited all at the same time. I literally started a new job 3 days ago, so it looks like a new life all round ????????

I'll be heading to the hospital in about 24 hours! I'm excited and nervous... and a little bit worried. I can't wait to get started on this journey!

Ok I'm not the only one who is days away from surgery and still feels a little unsure! That makes me feel better! If my insurance would cover a breast reduction- I would get one in a heartbeat! That is one thing I'm hoping is that I lose some of the boobage! A life long dream/goal of mine is to be able to buy a bra that fits from Victoria Secrets! Or even a cheap one from Target! I'm tired of the Lane Bryant ones!
We should start a fb August Bands 2015 group! A secret/closed group of course! ????

I know! Hence needing the band!

I have bcbs federal, they required a psyche evaluation, 3 months of records from doctor showing I tried to lose weight and nutrition evaluation. I have sleep apnea and diabetic and they approved mine in a week. Getting lap band next Thursday:)
