  1. 1. How many lbs did you loose the 1st week of being banded



Recommended Posts

Most people think that the pill makes you gain weight, in fact due to hormonal changes it can either cause you to eat more of LESS. With the band you will eat less, you will lose bc pill or not.

Well guys...I gained the week after surgery. :ermm I did do a pre-op diet though and lost 45 pounds in 14 days. At the time of my first fill 8 weeks later, I had gained back 10. :phanvan I have lost that 10 and a little more. It's coming off slowly, but this time of year I usually gain weight quickly, so I can't complain.:biggrin1:

I lost 9.5 lbs the first week....nice to see the drop on the scale but I know that this rate of loss is not maintainable. However, my clothes are fitting much better and looser which means more!

I lost 9 lbs the first week, and this week (my 2nd) I'm up 1 lb today, though official weigh in day is Saturday. It's a bit frustrating, but this board has helped me deal with it realizing this happens to a lot of people. I do feel better already, though!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
