Laura,

Congrats on your weight loss and LapBand!!! Happy to hear the strap isn't bugging you as much. I don't even know I'm wearing mine anymore, but at first it was always slipping and I even got a painful blister the first day I wore it.

I'm being banded in a few weeks, June 24th! Still waiting in that pesky insurance approval. Its cutting close and making me nervous...so we may have to wait a bit, who knows. Hopefully not. Its my PCP, she wants to talk to me before she sends her letter and not "do this on a whim"....I talked to her in January about it and again in March, she was not supportive but agreed that if I wanted it I should do it. Not only that I've been to so many Dr appointments, support groups, psych consult, nutritionist appointments...its frustrating to think I would be doing this "on a whim" and be lectures by a 120 pound woman on nutrition as if she can understand. She can't get me in until next week...so I'm worried it won't be in time.

Sorry if thats TMI.

Lori

Lori,

Have you talked to your lapband office about your late appt? Maybe they can work with you to keep on schedule. I was a self pay so I didn't have to jump through any hoops. Dr Kirshenbaum in Denver did my consults over the phone. And the nutritionist did as well. It was a problem free, easy process. Of course it cost me $10,000. But it was well worth it. I hope things start to roll easier for you. Good luck.

Okay, I'm having a minor problem with my bodybugg and was wondering if anyone else had this happen. Usually when I take my bodybugg off (for like 30 minutes or whatever) then put it back on, later when I upload my calories burned, it usually tells me that I wasn't wearing the bodybugg for X amount of time and ask me if I was inactive or if I burned the same amount as a previous day. Well, it hasn't even been noticing when I'm not wearing it. The box doesn't pop up anymore. Anyone else had this problem?

Georgia girl, that has only happend when I've had it off for more than 30 mins also. If it doesnt pop up that means it is still calculating your calories burned.

      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! 😞
