Hello all. I started my journey for the lapband on 16 January 2012 with a pre op appointment and weigh-in at 238.8. After my two week Protein sugar busters diet I weighed 226 on surgery day 31 January 2013. Today is post op day#3 and I currently weigh 220. I got my surgery done through Palmyra Surgical in Macon Ga. And so far aside from not being able to eat real food and the pain I am doing well and happy with the procedure.
Pre-op weight: 238.8
After two week diet: 226
Current weight: 220
Goal weight: 140
Pounds to go: 80
