I had lap band surgery exactly 1 year ago. I've lost 55 pounds. Not as fast as the surgeon thought I would' date=' but I know it's 55+ less than I would weigh if I hadn't had it done. [/sub']

It's ok to take the slow boat to China...I needed that time to succeeed. I was banded December 21, 2010. I was 268 and down to 189... My body is molding back with a little slower loss. I finally got an adjustment that spiked a little more restriction...less eating hence the weight loss! Biut only recently.

You are gonna do great!!!! Just take it easy because you are newly banded, this is a process to take day by day. Just stay within the guidelines your doctor has recommended and don't go off that path as much as you would like to. You will succeed because you took this step to be healthier for you!

I was banded 8/19/11 and to this day I've lost almost 70lbs, only about 15 from my goal weight. You can add my to your friends list, take this journey on a by day basis. The best of luck to you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
