Hello, I'm new to the site, just got banded August 14th, it's been an adevnture and a real learning experience so far, a little tough sometimes, but I'm very excited about my new direction. Wish I had known about this site a couple of weeks ago, there's so much good info here, it would have saved me a bunch of silly worrying and questions. Thanks so much for all the great info, I've learned more in the past 2 days than I had since surgery:p

Welcome to LBT!!! I was lucky, and found the site during my research into getting the band, so had these great people all the way. There are many very smart people here, and they are very willing to share what they know or have learned the hard way!!

There is also a section of LBT that can put you in touch with people in your area. Look through everything, and ask away! This is one of the best things about being banded, is the friends I have made here on LBT. I was looking to lose and control my weight, and I have...but I have also made amazing friends!

Once again....WELCOME!

Me too Kat. If it weren't for this site I really don't think I'd ever went through with the band. But after reading it's so reassuring. Good luck and welcome to lbt.

      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! 😞
