Lap Band-buddies



Recommended Posts

I'm hoping to make a few band buddies with the same surgery date (December 8). Everything is easier when you have friends to lean on, especially when we are going through the same thing!

this is very interesting to me. So on Facebook you can start a group in your personal profile? Are you sure no else will see it? I would love that without everyone knowing my business. How do I go about doing that?

This is very interesting....can you see my newsfeeds? Will I have to friend you? Can you comment on my status and images? Or is it like a separate wall? hmmmmm :blink:

Its going I lost 13 pounds so far. I am a nervous wreck. My husband was banded on Monday. I wished I had gone first. He seems to be doing good though.

Are you interested in joining our secret Facebook group. I need a twin ;-) If you are just inbox me your full name with location and I will friend you, then add you to the group and defriend for privacy. So none of our "real friends" find out lol...Its a great group of people 64 so far smile.png

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
