2.5 Years and my band looks great!



Recommended Posts

I had a little tweek of a fill (.25 cc- barely a drop!) Friday and my surgeon said my band looks fantastic and he's very happy with it. I am really tight, but restriction feels so good! I LOVE not being hungry all the time and being full after only a few bites.

The lapband rules!

Hi Megan,

Great to hear that your band is fine!!!.

I do have restriction, but not the kinda of I feel really full restriction I had before a few years ago. Now, I have to really stop myself from overeating and I am back to dieting to lose again.

Megan,

We needed to hear some good news around here!

Congrat's on the re-dedication. Thats a great thing that the band (a fill) gives us, a chance to start over our failed eating habits!

Thanks everyone! I am feeling like a brand new bandster at the moment. I'm really tight and I just can't get used to eating a few bites and stopping again. I want to eat the whole thing!

And Babs- until I got this little tweek I was struggling not to overeat myself. That's why I thought I'd try a little more fill. WOW! What a difference a drop makes.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
