BMI 34 getting banded this month!



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

My goal is 45 pounds and I'm wondering if anyone has had similar stories?

I have a range of health reasons for doing the surgery and it's certainly not a lack of serious trying for many years!

I love exercise and I'm hoping by eating right and exercise I can get down to a healthy weight even though it's not as big as some other success stories I read?

Any help would be so great. I think im getting nervous! But so ready...

Mel :)

Im right there with you. Ive tried so many things and Im actiually an active person but have had a really hard time loosing this weight. I was to the point of just accepting Id always be overweight untill reading up on the lap band. To me I feel hopeful again. I get banded 1/31/13 how about you?

      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! 😞
