2 months post-op



Recommended Posts

Hello bandsters, I wanted to write and express how pleased I am 2 months post-op with getting the band! I am 24 lbs down, and for the first time in a long time can I start the new year with a weight loss promise I can keep! Now that all of the holiday treats are out of the house, I can now refocus on reaching my 60lbs mark by March! Are there any fitness challenges going on now? If so please share, I'd love to participate!

So glad you're doing well at two months out. I am right behind you with my eight week mark on New Year's Eve. Here's to all the success 2014 will bring!

Congratulations....glad you are doing so well at 2 months....

2 month mark for me was when things started to come unraveled...height of bandster hell...band was not doing anything for me, I started to gain weight even after my first fill...was as hungry as ever,...could eat anything.....felt the whole thing was a waste of my time and $$....

Took me 5-6 months to find that "Groove" (had it ever since) and I am as happy as can be......glad you found it so soon....

Great to hear things are going good for you. I was banded a little before you. I'm down 28 lbs. Bravo to us for making it through the holidays!

Congratulations on your weight loss and the new band life. Time will fly by before you know it. I can honestly say I fully enjoyed the holidays without depriving myself and still managed to lose a few pounds. Band life is incredible. :D

Jim, good for you! Life with the band is not about restricting what we eat, but more of how much we eat! I can honestly say I enjoyed my share of Desserts and goodies during the holiday!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
