Hey everyone im considering a lap band and one of concerns is activities I like to do. Mainly stuff such as wakeboarding, ocean riding my sea door, and 4wheeling. Is it ok to do these things with a band or would that cause complications?

Im actually 5'11" about to 290lbs. Im surprising athletic for my size. I can even kick 180sass and stuff haha its a little ridiculous. That's why I think lap band would be great for me. I don't mind exercise and work outs (especially in the form of wakboarding/skiing/etc) I just eat too damn much

I snowboard and kickbox, then and now. Do those count? No problems. Outside of someone punching you in the stomach maybe, the band shouldn't be relevant.

      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?

      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! 😞
