Hello,

Iam from MN and going to have lap band surgery. I have family that has had it done and love it. I will be going to Mexico to have it done. I'am a self pay too. I have a date of the 5th of June I'am so excited. Iam trying to learn all I can. I live on a farm. I will be glab to lose the weight then I can ride. Doing chores are a chore if you know what I mean. It will be great not having to huff and puff to do them. So here I'am getting ready for a new life.

Good luck in your journey. This boad is a great source of information and inspiration.

      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! 😞
