I had my lapband on August 6th and lost 15 pounds within a week and now I have gained 2 pounds back. I know that this should not freak me out but I am so scared about failing at this! I have only been eating between 300 and 500 calories a day, and I know that I have not gotten all my proteins in on somedays... is this normal? I go back for my 2 week post op this Thursday and I am nervous!

I just posted something almost identical. We're in the same boat I'm 2 weeks out and I haven't lost anything in 5 days and gained a few pounds too! I also go in for my 2 week on Thursday!

Its nerve racking!! I am like am I eating enough? eating too much? What am I doing?? lol!! @mariarose are you on facebook we have a secret group on there I could invite you to join! lol!!

Yesss I'm so worried that I'm already eating too much.... & I am on FB and would love to join the group!

A journal of what your eating is a good idea stay positive you will lose the weight x

Friend request me and I'll add you all!! April Rene McGhee

This is totally normal, don't fret. Your body is going nuts right now from the low amount of calories you've been taking in. It needs a week or two to get on track. Everyone goes through this, don't worry! Good luck, and congratulations on joining the wls family

Hi, girls. I had my lap band surgery the same day and having the same issues. I am down 18 lbs total but that includes my pre-surgery weight loss with the liquid diet. Worried about the stall/regain but everyone says that is normal and it will start to come off again. How much do you want to lose total? I'm hoping 75 lbs.

HMJ you should join our Facebook group! Friend me and I'll add you there are 15 of us who all have had lap band or are having lap band this month! April Rene McGhee

I'm wanting to lose 100.. Down 15 since surgery!

What is the name of the page on Facebook? I would love to join

Hope send me a friend request and I'll add you April Rene MCGhee

I would love to join...but I am so nerveous! No one knows I have the band! Ahhh...on another note, I hit a weight loss stall for about a month....I was a wreck! I upped my protein and switched up my exercise. Sometimes it's hard to get all required calories. And I heard that too few can put your body into starvation mode..so make sure you get plenty of protein and water. I know this can be hard because some days it's hard to eat or drink much...good luck to y'all!

Funky monkey it's a secret group you can't even find it if you search for it because lots of the girls including me don't want people to know! Just let me know and I'll add you!! Thanks for the encouragement!

Hi April I've just added u would love to join - banded 4th August too - just starting mushy food this week - not list any weight since surgery lost 14lb pre surgery xxx
