One of the main reasons I decided to get lap band surgery was for my health. I'm 38 and have high blood pressure. I've been on meds since my early 30s. Most of my family has hypertension and some have even had heart attacks. I didn't want that. I'm 1 month post op and I've lost 22.5 lbs. My hormones are definitely out of whack after surgery and weight loss (feminine issues!) but the great news is that I have been taken off of two of three BP pills last week by my dr. I was taking four pills a day and now take half a pill a day since my BP is more normal. This makes me so happy!! I feel like I made one of the best decisions for myself and hope it continues to go well.

      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?

      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! 😞
