checking in 4 months post op

Well I'm 4 months post -op and down 50 pounds. It feels great. I can't wait to lose more. I had my lap band surgery with Dr. Schuster at St.s Mary & Elizabeth in Louisville, Kentucky. Things couldn't have have been better. Little pain if any. Was very smooth. I've only had 2 fills so far. I get my 3rd fill next Wednesday the 12th.

is 50 pounds in 4 months decent? I kinda feel like I've stalled but - I know i'm getting another fill soon. I'm really wanting to hit 100 pounds lost in a year.

AWESOME! I think you are doing a smoking job ! Congrats !! I only hope I loose 100lbs as fast as you .

great job, one of my goals is to lose 100lbs in a year. good luck too

That is great! Congratulations!

Is 50 pounds in 4 months "decent?" Heck-ya!! It's more than decent- it's fabulous!

congratulations!

We're on similar schedules and I'd also love to lose the 100 within a year. I'm also feeling a little stalled and haven't really lost much over the past month. My third fill is in two weeks. Can you eat whatever you want right now? Do you get stuck? Just curious about how the second fill worked for others. Regardless, it sounds like you're right on track. Congratulations!

honestly I felt tighter after my first fill. my second fill felt like he loosened it. LOL

I get my third fill next wednesday the 12th. I went in for a fill 6 weeks ago and he turned me down for a fill - said he thought i had more to lose on the current fill. I didn't drop much since then less than ten. so I'm ready for my 3rd fill - I can't wait. I'm going to do liquids a day early hoping to jump start the losing.

Congrats Girlfriend!

I had my surgery on 3/11/10 & have had 1 fill,

going in for my 2nd fill this morning....I have been in

"Bandsters Hell", haven't lost much...but staying positive, that it will come!!!
