Before and After Lap Band Surgery - PICTURES ONLY



Recommended Posts

December 3, 2006

This is a picture of me, already 20 pounds down from my highest weight (only picture I could find), and then another picture of me about a month ago. I am making progress. It is slow, but I can see the difference. Maybe I shouldn't have always been so camera shy so that I could see more of the work that I have accomplished.

Ok, I guess it is my turn to attempt to post some pictures of my work in progress. The "before" pictures were taken at my highest weight in April, 2 weeks prior to surgery. The current pictures were taken today, 46 pounds down.

The first picture was taken 19 days after my surgery ( October 10, 2005). The second picture was taken Thanksgiving day of this year. I have lost 150 lbs.

Before and current photos taken exactly 6 mos apart. Obviously you can see the way I feel (both days) just by looking at my face! This is the best thing I have ever done for myself!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
