I made a group for us 6 monthsters. Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum - 6 Month Supervised Diet People

8 pounds is wonderful. Congrats!

My insurance requires 6 month supervised diet and psych evaluation. I start month 2 June 4th!!

When I went to my consult I was nervous too. I ended up having a high blood pressure because of it and that made her want to check my blood pressure weekly. Turns out it was nerves that made it go up the 2nd appt she checked it it was lower but still elevated, 3rd completely normal. As I went and went the stress level went down.

Thank you very much Alex.

I haven't had my surgery yet but my doc told me I couldnt have alcohol for a year after surgery then I could drink again in small amounts.

I can't figure out how to create one. I feel dumb. Any help?

I'm excited about my next nutritional appt on June 4th but also frustrated. Lol. I hate waiting to find out if I lost more weight. I so badley want to put a 3 on the front of my numbers instead of a 4 I want to be out of the 400's I know I only have 10.5 more pounds until I am but hopefully I did it. Wednesday needs to get here.

How do I make a social group? I have looked and looked and can't find where I do it.

I'd like to make a suggestion for a permanent thread. I am on a 6 month diet and a lot of people including me have asked about a specific place for us all to talk. I get lost trying to find where I posted LOL. Anyway take it into consideration. I'd appreciate it and I'm sure many others would too. It would be nice for us all to have a specific section to get together and talk.:cool2: Thanks.:thumbdown:

Welcome to LBT Deb. I hope this forum is as helpful to you as it is to me and motivational! Congrats on learning about Lapband and starting a wonferful journey

Alex you are so awesome. Thanks for the awesome work on LBT!

I keep a food journal of all I eat each meal calories each meal how i felt when I ate what I was doing and add all the calories up at the end of the day. It helps me control what I intake and helps me know how many calories I need to burn when I exercise. It's very helpful and it's helped me lose weight. :cool2:

I say start with the salad then eat a small portion of a slider food.

I know that it sucks but it might actually be better this way. My GP was against WLS too so I decided to get one of the doctors at the hospital here that knows my Surgeon for Lapband to be my doctor and since then things have been fine. Just working on my 6 month diet. After that full-throttle into bandland!

Congrats Lauren on starting month 5! All I have left is my ekg, endoscopy, the rest of my 6 months and meet my surgeon. :cool2:

Congrats on the weightloss and finally having surgery. I wish you lots of luck.

I start my 2nd month on June 4th. I know how you feel. It feels like forever but my first month has been going by quickly and I've already had fantastic results. I lost 8.5 pounds in 2 weeks and I can't wait to see how much more I lost on the 4th. I wish you luck.

Welcome to LBT and I hope the seminar is helpful. If you have any other questions feel free to ask away. We don't bite.:cool2:

yay rep is gone!! I love that they're adding profiles. Fantastic! :cool2:

I've been dieting my whole life too but this is way different. It's helping me prepare for surgery.

YAY DAVID COOK WOOOOO :thumbup::biggrin::drool::biggrin::crying::thumbup:

I don't get it either. It's confusing. =/

I've been on my 6 month for 3 weeks now and have already lost 8.5 pounds probably more but I can't weigh myself until my next appt June 4th lol. I can't wait until I can buy a scale that can actually weigh me!

Haha I should wear a sexy bra that day!! LOL
