I am in Naples and had a lapband since Maech 2011 and it was removed in March of this year due to me not being able to keep anything down. I am going to be sleeve in about 60 days (hoping the end of September) Who is your Dr? Dr. Bass is mine.

Hi kyrasma,

My surgery is the 20th, so 7 days to go and I am going out of my mind! Super excited and of course nervous. Dr. Sheih in ft. Myers is my doc, and I'm having surgery at Holy Cross in Ft. lauderdale. Did you have serious complications with the band, or did it just not do what you were expecting? I was born and raised in Naples and was hoping to meet a new friend locally to share the experience with :-)

      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! 😞
