I'm two weeks post op and don't regret a thing about my labpand. This is the best thing I could ever have done for myself. Can I get a bump!?

I agree--I think getting my band was by far one of the best things I ever did for just me---I only wish I had done it years ago!

Better late than never tho!!!

I had surgery 5 days ago and except for the post-op gassyness - which lasted about 2 days, I had very little (if any)pain. Had surgery on Thursday, back to work on Monday. My stomach rumbles quite a bit, but nothing painful.:clap2:

Yes I agree D.

I finally feel that my yo-yoing is gone for good.

I do miss the volume of food . I miss the buzz I would get from overeating.

I get my buzz from my daily exercise now. I truly believe that I HAD to switch to another addiction. Thank goodness it is exercise not booze for example.

Hopefully not everyone has to do this. I did.

I couldn't agree with you any more. I was banded March 6th and I'm so happy with the results so far. I still can't get over the fact that I'm truly full after eating such small amounts of food. I can't wait for the rest of my new life with my band.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
