hey girl we were ALL scared at one time or another! we wouldnt be human if we werent! its a surgery and a life changing experience for sure..

I myself have been through it twice and would do it all over again if need be! this is a great TOOL for us to loose weight

As for your chocolate cravings...hummm maybe they need to invent a chocolate patch? just take a hershys bar and duct tape it to your arm ...haha maybe that will work?:heh:

I dont have any chocolate cravings i have salt cravings!!! so i have a salt lick on my arm...just kidding! *8thinks to self** i wonder if that would work??? hahaha

Youll be fine and will find lots of support here on LBT!

are you in texas? I am in fort worth!;)

Hippmom,

Dr. Keilin & Dr. Hekier did my surgery. You will find that on your first appt you will meet the lap band coordinator, Betty-May. She knows EVERYTHING there is to know about the lapband and about finances. She will become your best friend. Feel free to ask her any questions. I know I did & she never got tired of answering. She really understands and is there to help you.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
