Hi Carole. I live in wc and was sleved in june. send me a mss if you have any questions. good luck.

Havent been on for a whil. Down 40 pounds in 2.5 months. slow and steady wins th race Iguess.

gained 2 pounds back and Im only 3 weeks post op- wth????????????????????

what id you eat to loose so much?

good luck. dr. dakin is very good. he doesnt say much but his skills speak for him. i am only 6 days post op. keep me posted.

I was released yesterday. thanks for all the warm thoughts and prayers. God is GOOD!

surgery tomorrow and im nervous

why is it that some doctors require a 2 week liquid diet during pre and post op while other docs dont?

Approve today! I feel very happy and aprehensive............thinking positive thoughts. YAY.

I pray all goes well for you. I look forward to joining you on the loosers bench. When you are able, please share your experience with nyp. I am crossing my fingers for approval with dr. dakins office. I am pretty confident with him as well as his experience team. was dr. dakin your surgeon?

Awaiting ins. approval. I have a tentative date for june. please send positive thoughts my way.

ahhh, I remember the size 12 days. You are maybe 15 pouunds away from your goal of 12-14, so you will be there soon. thank you for the feedback. My next step is finding someoene with 15-20 years post op. I see and hear great results related to wls from folks that are up to 8 years post op, but it is unsettling to not be able to read or hear from folks that have 15-20 years out. I am starting to wonder, do they even exist? I know that wls procedures have changed over the years, but I have a two year old to live for and I need to know that I will be ok, even with sucessful weightloss.

happy new year jlg.you look fabulous. Something inspired me to look at your page and I see that you are a soror. I need some real sisterly advice. I was always overweight but after 100lbs weight gain during pregnancy, I am at a dangerous weight of 265.I have a consultation with a surgeon in a couple of weeks. The problem is that I do not know anyone personally that has experienced the lap band. I have been reading some discouraging things related to lap bands and low success rates, which has led to gastric bypass consideration. I never thought I would actually contemplate gbp but I just worry that if I opt for the lapband, I will not loose the 100 pounds that is recommended.
