Hey there...My name is Dean and I'm scheduled to have my Lap Band on September 11th at 8:30am. I had Gastric Bypass in 2002 and never got to my goal weight. I'm having the Band over Bypass surgery and very excited and nervous...my job this week and next is to stop reading stuff on the net. Making me have a bit of cold feet.

Where r u having surgery?

Welcome NewMe, I feel this is the best decision I've made to get healthy. I've been banded for about 3 weeks, and I only wish I'd done it sooner. Congrats on your decision and Best Wishes to successful banding, weight loss and better health. :)

Gastro, Congrats to you on your decision. Why be nervous, you had Gastric Bypass already, you can do this! Take the professional advice of your doctor, and address your concerns to him or her, that's where your best advice will come from. Best wishes to you, and keep us updated on how you're doing.

Hi Newme

I had my band just over 2 weeks ago. I am so glad I have had it. I feel it will be life changing. Being in control for once and hopefully losing weight and not putting it back on ! like I have done a million times.

I am feeling so much better already and am at a weight that I haven't seen in years.

Good Luck in your journey :) x

      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! 😞
