Anybody wish they HADN'T done it?
missfinedevine replied to mimirae's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
NO! I have only been banded 4 months today and have lost 40 lbs. One of the best decisions I have ever made besides excepting JESUS as my personal savior and having my son. I would have never been able to get rid of 40lbs on my own. Down from size 16 pants to size 12. And down one shoe size. Had great surgeon DR Oliak in Brea, CA and a very good staff and support group. REGRETS. NO I DO NOT THINK SO. -
My doc have performed over 10,000 lap band surgeries and have not lost a patient. But if you are afraid. I suggest that you do not have it.

Yes Jessica the lap band really works. I was banded on Dec 30th 2009 and went from a size 16 - size 12 pants and have lost one shoe size. I can only eat 1/4 of what I was able to eat b4 the band. The Lap Band is not a miracle worker but a tool. It is good to change your eating habits. And make wise food choices. I wish you the best on your weight lost journey

Hey KC, the surgery went well. I did not need the hernia repair which I was happy about. I was in by 7 a.m. out by 1:00 a.m. because they could not find my veins to put in IV that took long time. I always have that problem. I had a lot of pain last night but feel great this morning. You look great. I am not hungry and have not been hungry since the surgery. HAPPY NEW YEAR. Beverly

Hey Jackie thanks the surgery went well. I did not need the hernia repair the nurse told me that 90% of the patients that go into surgery will have to have the hernia repair. It was hard to sleep last night because I am not used to sleeping on my back. Had to take my pain meds last night took it and overflowed my pouch. Dr oliak took pictures of my lab band and give me pictures of it. Thank you for checking on me. Love ya and HAPPY NEW YEAR. Beverly
