Looks like we've all moved over to the ABC (for August Band Crew) September Chat thread on the LapBand Support forum. Come on over everyone! Maybe a moderator can lock this one so we don't have to keep going back and forth?

I Am 12 Post Sx. The Only Problem I Had Was In The Recovery Room When I Was Nauseaus And Threw Up A Couple Of Times. By The Time I Was Home I Felt Great. Other Than Tender Tummy, I Feel The Same. I Feel So Blessed That I Have A Second Chance On Life. I Went To Work On The 4th Day And Felt Ok. The Next Day I Was Dizzy And Nauseaus Again. Went Home And Called The Dr. Seemed I Was In The First Stage Of Dehydration. That Is The Only Problem I Have. Trying To Get 64 Oz Of Water Down. It That Is The Only Problem I Have I Am Very Very Lucky!!

I Have Lost All The Weight From The Sx For I Did Gain 7 Lbs, Plus 7 More. I Am Eating And Drinking What I Am Suppost To And Have Gained 2 Lbs. I Understand That It Is A Time Of Healing But It Is Very Hard Not To Want To See The Weight Come Off After Sx. I Need To Just Be Patient!! I Have Always Been Too Hard On Myself.

Robin.....are You Planning To Go The The Support Group Meetings At Dr Spivak's? I Will Probably Do So In Two Thurs. Hope To Meet You There.

Hi everyone I would like to sign up on the August Band Crew. I was banded 8/16/06 by Dr. Ortiz in TJ Mexico. So far I am doing very well with the band and am about ready for my first fill. When I made my appointment to be banded I weighed 385. I had to loose 20lbs. before surgery and have lost 17 more since I was banded. I am glad to be on your crew...Richard Evans

      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! 😞
