Hi Everyone

I am knew to this site. I will be having lapband done October 25/07. Has anyone here had theirs done by Dr Yau at the Prince Arthur Medical Centre in Toronto?

I am very excited to have this done. I am wanting to lose 84 lbs. How soon after surgery did you notice the wait coming off ? How much did you lose in the first couple of months? I have heard the heavier you are the more you lose. Is there anyone who wants to lose the same as me? My BMI is 33.

I have found this site to be very very helpful. Thank-you everyone for posting your before and after emotional and physical feelings. I am a pretty good healer and really want to get this weight off that I have hung onto for so many years.

Keep up the great work everyone. I can't wait to watch my ticker move.

18 Again soon:clap2:

Hey, so exciting.

This site is a great resource and hope you find everything you are looking for. Like me, you were a lower bmi starting out. My weightloss has been slow, didn't start until 10 weeks after surgery (with a fill and restriction).

I have lost about 15 pounds and all this after my 2nd fill. I have about 30 to go.

Good luck!

Thanks Grace

I had my surgery and I am feeling great. I have lost 9 lbs since I started my pre-op diet. I seem to be losing 1lb a day since I was banded but I am afraid if I don't walk lots during the honeymoon period I may not lose anything. Old failures staying on my mind I guess.

Grace do you know how I go about getting my Dr's information and band date underneath or above my ticket? I can't get it to work.

Good Luck in your Journey

Please keep posting

18 Again
