Hello,

I need some one to help me with my ups and downs. This lap band exp is some time hard to deal with, but since i have been visiting this site i have been staying encouraged and on the right track. I also try to encourage other do to the fact that I know what it feels like to be down. I have been banded 4 almost 7 mnth and have lost 40 lbs, my mini goal is to lose 100 lbs and be healthy.

Thanks 4 viewing my thread :thumbup:

Hello gonbhealthy,

Don't B :thumbup: B :biggrin2:, Your dream is coming true. You have to remind yourself this is 4 u not them. Also it's so sad to say this but some people just may not want u to change. But the truth is---> this is 4 u not them<---. Once u drop the pounds ur not going to care what any ONE thinks or says.

Hello Ladies, :frown:

My 4th was great, it was my son's b-day so you know what that's all about cake and ice cream :thumbup:, but 4 some reason i could not eat at all that day. The band does me like that some times. :biggrin: I just drunk my slimfst and had a pool party. Which means lots of calories burned. :thumbup::thumbup:So how is everyone ??? Good luck ladies.

Hello Drewsmom,

Yes it is hard when u r first banded and yes it is frustrating . I had the same problem when i was first banded I thought that the wght would just melt away. I am just now starting to lose 1 to 2 lbs a week and I have been banded for 6 mnths now :thumbup:. This band is something that takes hard work, you have to make it work for you. Just stay encourage and dont 4 get about the gold at the end of the rainbow. You can do it :biggrin: :frown: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Hello

Thank you so much for that, the crazy thing is that my doctor said that it is best not to work out and if you do work out do it for only 15 min a day??? I was so confused because most people i talk to who had the surgery works out.

I enjoyed reading your article it has encourage me to keep trying. :rolleyes2::thumbup:

Andy i am so happy to read this article, I am starting off slow but the wght is starting to actualy come off now. These tips will help me so much. Thanks and keep-em com-n.

Hello,

I ask my doc the same question, they called me one day before my surgery and told me to stop eating any foods and get on clear liq asap.
