Reference! Great reference from NaNa in success with band.



Recommended Posts

NaNa, on my friends page was nice enough to post a article on the success of the band from the creator (surgeon) of the lap band. I thank you NaNa and of course everyone else for giving me hope and support with the band. Pre op or Post op. I feel like we're all family in distance, but close because we are sharing the same bond (Band). Anyway, the article is helpful, its given me a better understanding on the success of the band. Once you apply those tools...sky's the limit. Thanks everyone!!! Muah!!! :)

Actually I may Ping Alex to have that very important article as a pinned article because it is very critical to any one seeking a band and all lap banders, this information was not available to me over 8 years ago when i first got my band.

Newbies today are lucky they have this information.

I will paste a link again to it, in the event someone missed it.

Yes, please do. It is very helpful and thanks for doing that. I think you should let Alex know to put it up, newbies like myself find that very helpful. Also, congrats on 8yrs banded. I wish I did it yrs ago, but I got now. :) better late, then never.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
