Hello all! Remember me I was the one who posted a few weeks ago that I thought I failed my LB

Oops I hit send on accident hahah. I was not done.

Well for those who did not know my story I post I was feeling down because I was banded November 14, 2010. Start weight was 330, My surgery weight was 280. I lost about 35lbs shortly after but about 1 year ago I noticed my weight was coming back. I was embarrassed to see friends who knew I did my surgery because I did not follow up. I gained the 35 I lost back. I finally had the courage to see my doctor and when I called she was no longer practicing. So I had to find a new doctor.

After doing some research I found Dr Woody Denhem. Made the appointment and had the courage to go to him to continue me weight loss. On Thursday I went in WEIGHT IS 284 lbs.

dr said he was happy for me to be there and said let's move forward. He checked me and was able to fill me on the spot. 2 days of liquid and back to solids as of today! I feel good so far! The fill was 5cc an he said what that number means nothing. 5cc for me can be 10cc for someone else. It's all on how I feel. I'm excited to be back.

SO PROUD OF YOU!!!

I am excited to tread your post because I wan just thinking I want to switch to dr denham (been using another doc who is far away from me and the drive is very difficult) but I wasn't sure if he takes patients from other doctors

Boy am I glad to read this!

You can do this dude! We're all in this together!

Btw does dr denham do his fills under fluoro? Or does he just guesstimate?

Please keep us updated on your progress :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
