In my 6 months of medically supervised weight loss, I managed to lose 6 lbs. But somehow, in the 3 weeks since my 6 month appointment I've managed to lose 7 lbs. I haven't actively been doing anything different, but apparently, being able to focus 100% on just getting healthy is a way more successful approach than focusing on trying to lose (or even just not gain) weight! I still have work to do in getting myself going in the exercise department, but I'm feeling really good about my relationship with food these days!

Anybody on here doing surgery in Mexico? I am using the same place a coworker used 2 years ago. She also had other family members do it after her. Anybody have experience or heard of dr. verboonen? Kinda skeptical, but my insurance doesn't cover it and my PCP signed off on it. Surgery date schedule for 9/14/15. Just trying to get healthy for my son and husband.

Hi there-I just called my lapband doc to discuss getting the sleeve. Would be very interested to hear how your process has been since you are/will be previously banded.

I lost 30 lbs since I was banded in 2014. I never had restriction and really hope I am approved by insurance.

Mine is Sept. 7th and it seems so far away, I can't wait to get this band out and get the ball rolling again

This is so exciting that everyone is getting their dates! I still have to wait until Aug 19th for my final NUT appt. Then they will submit to insurance. Hope I will know my date in a month or so.

So happy for all of you! We are finally getting close!

      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
