I am also a teacher. What grade to you teach? I was banded on Friday, February 6th and tried to go back to work on that following Wednesday. Listen to your body and your doctor....I was supposed to be out a week. I was completely exhausted when I got home and paid for it the next day. Talk to your doctor before you plan anything!

Hi everyone, I am 29 and live in the Coastal Georgia Area. I began my lapband process in August/September 2008. I was finally approved for surgery on January 7, 2009 and I had lapband on February 6, 2009. My doctor was Dr. John Angstadt from the Memorial Bariatric Group. I started my weight loss journey at 258 and I am currently down to 214. I have a mini goal of breaking the 200 lb. mark by March 6, 2009 which is my 30th birthday. If this happens, it will have been the smallest I have been since I was in high school:thumbup: I am still on the liquid diet which is killing me. I am hungry and the liquids do not seem to fill me up. I have read most of the post and will continue to fight with this until I see my nutritionist and doctor on the 23. I hope to hear from everyone learn more about everyone's experiences!
