Getting banded on sept. 3rd



Recommended Posts

I am 22 years old getting my sugary very soon. I am scared and excited all at the same time. I start my pre op diet on Tuesday hope I can make it through the pre op diet. I was approve a year ago and wanted to try one last time to do it my self. I was able to loose 20lbs by myself. But I know I have to do something before I get bigger so decided to go through with lap band. Hopefully this will be the tool to finely get ride of this weight.

Hey, you can always try another diet? They work so well?

Seriously, we see patients on here all the time with the same issues. It can last till 2 weeks post surgery but if you feel like you've tried everything else in the world, why not try this? But make sure you make the commitment.

I struggled with my weight my whole life believe me I tried so many things. I gave my self one last effort on trying on my own. I am proud I was able to loose some weight but I know i need help in my eating portion. Hopefully this well help me loose even more weight with my diet and exercise routine that I already have in place.

Every doctor is different! Might depend on your BMI.

I have a higher BMI of 55 so my pre op will be 3weeks :(

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
