Recommended Posts

Update-

Starting weight 408

Current weight 379

Lost 29lbs thus far... seems low in comparison to some of you all :/.

I have 5ccs and go for another fill Sept. 10th. Hopefully that'll help.

No way you are doing great....never compare your weight loss with someone elses we are all different. 29 lbs in 3 mos.is amazing!

Hi June Bandsters,

It's been a while since I checked in and posted. Doing pretty well overall. However, I just had to have my gallbladder removed a few days ago so I'm on the mend again. Naturally the surgeon couldn't use the same 4 incisions as as band surgery, so I have 4 new ones! lol! Down a total of 41 lbs as of this morning since surgery in late June. Goal weight would be another 25ish. I'm sure that'll be harder to achieve than most recent weight loss, but I feel better. stronger and more confident (especially after most recent surgery), about ultimate goal. Hang int here June"sters", I'm proud of all of you!!

Wow! Amazing progress, JDMart7! Best wishes to you for a fast and full recovery from your recent gallbladder surgery! Just what you needed, huh?

I had surgery June 8 and am down 32 pounds - 53 to go to goal. Tomorrow is my scheduled weigh day, so maybe a few more than that. Feeling good, understanding it's a slow process, working to change habits (which do die hard by the way.)

Excited about progress week by week...

Thanks for checking in!

Had my surgery 6/15/12, and I am down 80 pounds. Seem to be on a plateau lately, but just kick started my workout plan into high gear! My goal was/is to get to a 100 pound weight loss by my anniversary date. Guess time will tell:) Very happy with my surgery, and my weight loss, but not a huge fan of the sagging skin on my belly and arms. Yuck!

On a good note, I ran for the first time in 13 years yesterday. Felt so good!!

Love reading everyone's updates!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
