Hey there , how are you doing? Have you survived Christmas? It sure was different without all the food this year. Each day I am learning. I had my 2nd fill last friday. My total weight loss is 75 lbs. The problem is I still don't see it. How long before you could see a big change?

I had surgery July 28th. I have lost 50lbs, I have not had my first fill yet. I am getting it filled Nov 17th. I have found myself slipping back into bad habits, I understand this is a daily struggle. I need to lose 150 more and it is hard. -
Yes,that includes the 2 week pre-surgery diet.I go back in 6 weeks now, but as long as the weight is coming off I won't have a fill until I need it. We used to eat out all the time and I have been cooking at home . This has really made a big difference for me.

My surgery date is Monday the 28th. I have been on this liver shrinking diet for almost 2 weeks. Giving up the cafeine was the worst for me. I want to be successful in this new venture. Good luck. -

I think 53 pounds is GREAT!!!! My surgery is July 28th. I start my liver shrinking diet this Sunday. I need to lose at least 175lbs. My life is about to change.

Well I guess I can add High food prices to my list of reasons for having lap band surgery. My doctor wanted us to make a list so if we get discouraged we can look back on the reasons why we did it. Even all the restaurants have new menus with higher prices!!! When you start writing down everything the list grows.

costco has some pretty good shakes. I add ice and put them in the blender.Not bad.

I am waiting for my surgery date on july 28th. I have been reading everything I can to prepare for this. I know the first 2 weeks are going to be rough!!! I have to go off estrogen, not take advil for knee pain and 800 calories a day. WOW! My poor husband .Does anyone have good ideas for making it through this time?

I can still take tylenol but I may as well eat candy. It does nothing. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply. The estrogen can cause blood clots so thats why they want me off of this .

how long does it take to get your surgery date after your nutritional class? This whole process seems to take a long time.
