Your doctor is right, your body goes through a lot during surgery. The weight will come off if you stick to your plan of drinking water, watching calories, exercising and remember " protein first". Best of luck, Karen
Thank you for the great advise. I am 53 and waiting to get a band. My metabolism is so slow I have started cycling everyday on a stationary bike. My doctor is trying to convince me to get a bypass but I know I can be successful with a band.
I think HE wants me to have a faster weight loss so he will look good. I am sticking with the band. Thanks for listening.
