That is wonderful that you have such a great relationship with your surgeon as it should be. Can you already tell the difference from when you had the lapland to the RNY?

The feeling of the pressure you receive from the Lapband is gone. The RNY is more of a feeling of being full, not that stuck feeling. It is difficult to explain.

Hello all. I had my band removed and bypass done 12/31/13. I'm in brownwood Texas but had surgery in ft worth. I'm now 49 lbs down in just over a month. My email is bokay@ hotmail. Com and I'm also on fitness pal as bokay2014. Look forward to meeting new people who have also had WLS.

<p>Hi! I had my surgery November 18th in Dallas at Doctors Hospital..</p>

welcome sherry. I had mine at doctors hospital as well. Dr barker did my surgery. I am 1.5 years post op. I loved dr barker, but hated doctors hospital. I am fairly certain I got a nurse fired that evening because of how horrible she was to me.

Hi music1618! Im currently fulfilling my insurance requirements and im also working with dr. Barker..so far so good but i have about a month left. Where in town will they let you try Protein Shakes?

It is a place called max muscle. They partner with dr barker. The closet one to their office is in Plano. Just take what you will be mixing with the shake. I took lactose free milk with me.

I had surgery with Dr. Primomo on 3-26-14. He was great! Houston Herman Memorial City Hospital was awesome as well!

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
