Hi. Anyone out there start out around 180 and go down from there? If so, how have you done? How long has it been since surgery? Looking for someone with the same dimensions:)

Yup, I get all my protein in and then some. My doctor's cannot figure it out. I had to get off the Effexor to start losing again. I work out a lot too!

wow. how have you been doing since you got off your meds?

My lapband doc - tho a great surgeon - has let me down completely with follow-up. My last calls and emails for help have gone unanswered and I have officially given up looking for help there. I am planning on getting my band removed next April-May and just muddling along until then.

marys-will you pursue another wls like the sleeve or mini gastric bypass. others have found success with those when the band failed.

No, I've accepted being fat
