Banded May 4 And New To Group!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I was banded last week and it's been a slow journey of healing and getting used to this new lifestyle. I'm from Brooklyn and 26 years old. I've wanted the lap-band for a few years now and I am so happy I got it. I can't wait to start seeing real results and until I get past the healing hurdle. I don't know anyone who has been banded so this will be a great support system for me especially in the beginning while I am learning the lap-band ropes!! Thanks

I'm almost two years banded..just had surgery 7!weeks ago and I think something is not right somewhere. I think my breast redux has affected stuff. Sometimes I feel twinges. My port is located on top of my belly button n it's diff still after 2 years. Have to be careful not to wear clothing that is tight in that area jeans, tights etc. I see the doc tomorrow to checks things out, have not seen him think 6-8 months. Last time everything was ok. I don't have any reflux unless I eat mex food that I don't, but the Water n me, we r not friends, even a sip is a ton of brick. I don't have any stomach pain, or redness, gain some weight after this surgery but that was my fault, but start losing again since I catch myself, I get bloated a lot and easy, also constipated, taking Miralax. All the weird stuff started after this past surgery. Will see what the doc says tomorrow. Prob is nothing since I. Ding scared reading all this posts. I was reading erosion starts happ after 2 years, since soon will be mine it's better if I check it have peace of mine, as not being easy. How u being doing with your band after 2 years?

      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.
