Hi Cammy,
Just read your story and wanted you to know that you are not alone. You are absolutely beautiful and just need to remind yourself that every now and again. Surround yourself with people that love and care about you.
Lap band has impacted my life so much and I am only 4 months out. I am down 40 pounds and feel so much better about myself. I feel that Lap band was the best decision I have ever made. I wish you all the best of luck with the surgery.
If you ever have any questions please know that I am here.
Blair

I posted a picture that shows before and now... it is about 30 pounds down. :w00t: I'm proud. It feels good to be losing!:blushing: -
Hey!! So about these hefty days... I feel them too! Actually just on Saturday I couldn't find ANYTHING to wear bc everything I tried on I felt HUGE in! I haven't felt that since I've started losing weight, but I think there will be times through out this process that we will feel that. Heck... I'm sure even when we reach goal we will feel that on occasion!
Hope you are having a better day! Hang in there.

Hang in there Lauren! I promise it will be worth it! I did the liquid diet a week before and a week after... it was hell but now looking back I would absolulety do it again! I'm now 3 months out and losing! :confused: It is amazing.

Don't be nervous... it is hard work but SOOO worth it. The first month is the hardest... and then things slowly get easier. Thanks for the compliments, I am working really hard and it is starting to pay off!

You look great! Keep up the good work!!! :thumbup: Congrats! -
Hey! I am doing really well!! I'm down 32 lbs. now and sooo excited about that! I have had a hard time with fills... but now I'm at 3cc's and doing better. I think this is going to be a learning process the whole way through. I have to think when I'm eating and drinking and that I've NEVER done! ha!
How are you? Do you have your surgery date yet?! You look great... how much have you lost so far?!

Hey! So I am being banded March 12... and am so excited! However my biggest concern and it may sound so petty is having a lot of loose skin! What have you gone through with your skin thru the whole process? Some have told me they have a little but what exactly classifies a little? Also... is there anything you can do to help prevent it?

Question about sweet spot in 10 cc band
BEK1986 replied to HollyRnOh's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I was at 3.75 cc's and I was too tight and vomitting after every meal. I am down to 3cc's now and feel much better. I think for now this is my sweet spot. -
1. SV- I lost 8 lbs in 3 weeks... YA!!! 2. I joined a gym and have been working out 4 times a week. I meet with MY personal trainer (my boyfriend ha!) twice a week and do a boot camp every Saturday morning! 3. I am starting to notice a difference. I think it sometimes takes awhile before we can look in the mirror and notice a difference of ourselves. Maybe it is because I evaluate my body every second of the day... ha!
