Got my Lap Band!!

I Got my Lapband August 17th and am happy to say I am doing great I am so happy!!! I started my preop diet the week before my surgery. So far in 3 weeks I have lost 26 pounds and since the surgery itself I have lost 8 pounds!!! I was 299 and am now 273. My goal is 165!! My only problem is trying to get this glue off lol My doctor advised me that after 10 days if the strips were not off I could remove them so I did last night but that glue is some strong stuff I hope it comes off soon! Good luck to everyone with their journeys! :)

    Believe it or not...but toothpaste gently rubbed on the glue around the incisions makes it so easy to just wipe off!
