Hello everyone! I just found this app looking to see if there was a lap band magazine out there that I could subscribe to! An found y'all! I've been browsing around trying to figure were things are! I think this is very cool!! I just had my lap band surgery this past June so have lots of questions as I run in to the different things thru this new journey! So far I've lost a total of 60lbs since I started going to my clinic in February!

Not 60lbs since June! In June I had the surgery, but started going to the clinic in February and my insurance asked for 3 weigh ins before surgery so that's when I got in a diet! Lost 27lbs on my own and the rest was after surgery! I was 305lbs my very first weigh in and im at 245lbs up to now! My goal weight is 200lbs and thinking about staying there! So need 45lbs more to go, I'm 6ft tall so it should be good!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
