Ms. Wonderful

Hello, I have been overweight since I was child and had tired numerous ways to lose weight. I was introduced to the lap band in May of this year and I was banded on October 17. My lap band doctor was Dr. Christopher Hart out of Atlanta, GA. He is known as one of the best in Atlanta. So far I have lost about 11 pounds. I had been a little frustrated because I thought I should have lost more by now but I spoke with my nurse practitioner and she assured me this was normal. According to her, it is normal to gain a little weight once you start eating soft food again. So I've started back working out this week and have not weighed myself. I'm trying not to become obsess with how much I lose each week but part of me wants to weigh myself everyday. I know I will need support in this process so I hope to meet people who can help me stay focused.:eek:

Hi, I was banned on October 17th and have lost 10 pounds so far. Im a little concern that this morning I had gained a pound. Im starting to eat mushy food again. Do you know if this is normal.
