Recommended Posts

I HAD MY BLAP BAND DONE MARCH 29TH 2011..... I AM AT MY 6 WEEK MARK TODAY AND I'M DOWN 13-15 LBS ALL TOGETHER 9 LBS SINCE SURGERY. I DON'T SEE IT BUT EVERYONE ELSE SAYS THAT THEY CAN. I AM GETTING INTO SOME OLD CLOTHES THOUGH. I WAS WEARING A SIZE 24 AND NOW I CAN GET INTO SOME OF MY 20S. SO I GUESS I'M LOSING INCHES. I GET MY 1ST FILL TOMORROW. I HOPE I GET MORE RESTRICTION AND BETTER RESULTS.... BUT I MUST SAY I HAVE NOT BEEN WALKING LIKE I'M SUPPOSE TO. BUT NOW THAT I AM OFF MY RESTRICTIONS I WILL START PLAYING VOLLEYBALL AND SOFTBALL AGAIN HOPEFULLY THAT WILL HELP. WHERE WERE YOU AT 6 WEEKS POST OP?

First 6 weeks aren't about weight loss. Stay away from the scale and let yourself heal. You're complaining when you're down 2 pants sizes why? What exactly are you expecting, over night results?

15 pounds in great in 6 weeks-especially with no fills! Next time you go food shopping pick up 15 ounds of meat-try holding it for a while-that's what you lost!! Or put 15 one pound boxes of butter in your cart-all that is now off your body!! You're doing great-keep it up!

Now that it's so nice out try walking a liittle each day-get an ipod to listen to while you walk. Good Luck to you!!!

Aloha,

What you eat has alot to do with the amount of weight you lose. Choose foods that are lower in calorie and healthier for you, added with excercise and you'll lose more. Remember the band is a tool, an aide, we still need to do our part.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
