  1. Overdue

    · vanmom · 03/09/2013 16:31

    I have not utilized this in forever. I haven't ever reached my goal weight but I was happy with the weight loss, this last 2 years has been challenging for me with family issues and health issues for me. Things are finally looking up, but now what weigh has been put back on. Got a fill on 3/7/13 and I am re-energized to go again and accomplish what I never did the first time Goal weight.
    New journey begins today...
    Can't the lap band work? My doctor kept trying to talk me into the sleeve why?
    Keep you posted on weight loss

  2. got a fill this week

    I got a fill this week and have had a hard time eating this time like I have never had a hard time with the last fill. I hope it is not to much, I don't won't to go get some taken out.:phanvan but other than this little set back I have been doing ok. The diarrhea has past so I'm hoping it was just a viral infection and nothing more.

  3. Life since my lapband

    · vanmom · 06/18/2006 00:02

    I had my lapband done on Dec 30, 2005 and to date have lost 50 lbs. some people tell me that is not much for having this surgery, but I am excited about the weight lost. when you can not even lose 1 lb this surgery is a miracle for me. I'm not good at sharing my feelings or experiences with others due to so many years of always having people tell me that the weigh was always my fault and if I really wanted to do something about it I would. So this is new to me and probably why for so long I wouldn't post anything. Today I am not doing well, I have been sick now for 4 days with liquid diarrhea and I don't know why and I am starting to get a little concerned.:cry
