  1. Went to my lap band doctor today and she is so wonderful. We talked about so many things and gave me confidence. The first time I had it done I was told by my primary doctor that I'd lose 100 lbs the first year and that's what I had in my mind but lost 58lbs. I realize at first I thought it was a quick fix but it's a tool to help you and you better work with the tool or it's not going to work. So my second time around is starting. Reading all the blogs have really helped. I give everyone alot of credit that has lost and wish all of you loads of luck.

    The first time I had my surgery I felt great. I had gone to 3 different doctor's because our insurance was changed. I had very little counseling before the surgery. My primary doctor said in a year you will lose 100 lbs. Lost 50. My weight goes to my belly otherwise if you look at my face you would never think I was fat. Your kitchen sounds like mine. Lots of luck to you....My treat was italian ice.

    Has anyone had lap band surgery and had it removed? I have gained my 50 lbs. I lost back. I am home today and have been eating way to much. I have an appt. to see about having lap band put back in. Has anyone out there have gone thru this. My regular dr. is pushing me to do it again. Food is important to me. I love to cook for my family. I hate the weight. I am in a happy marriage (33 trs.) I want to lose the weight but it's such a big decission to do it again or noy?:smile:
