Hello all,

This is the second time I wrote this the other one just disappeared???? :embarassed: :faint:

Ok so I have been lurking alot and posting a litlle for the pass month or so. I heard about the lapband in dec of last year. I have done TONs of research and decided to do it.. I am a mother of three children under the age of 5 and a wife to a wonderful man. I am at the highest weight of my life right now and just ready to make a life change. ( I am 6'2 and 315lbs w/ BMI of 40) So today is my LCD day(life changing day) I am commited to changing all my old bad habits and making new ones. I have two appointments next week to see a psyc dr and a nutritionalist. once that done my doctor will file the ins. I am praying I get approved. I have united and have been told they are real good about approving. I am seeing Dr woodman in Memphis Tn. Anyone heard of him? Anyways just wanted to say thanks for all of your inspiration you all have offered and be prepaired I sure I will have LOTS of questions.. :help:

      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! 😞
