Before and After Lap Band Surgery - PICTURES ONLY



Recommended Posts

I just celebrated my 3 month bandiversary 2 days ago. These pictures were taken 8 days ago. I have to explain the before pics. This was at our outdoor school last year so the reason my tongue is sticking out is because we were singing funny camp songs. This was not even at my highest. I think I gained an additional 10 pounds after these pictures were taken, but you get the picture! The other pics were taken a week ago. That is the same blue san francisco shirt in both pics. I had to take another after pic in a better shirt, cause the t-shirt is now way too big and has been demoted to a weekend only shirt!whoo.gif<!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- / message --><!-- attachments -->

My 6-month bandiversary is in two days so I thought I would post my 6-month progress pics. I plan on getting a new pair of jeans (hopefully in a size 14!!) on my bandiversary and I'll take pics of me in regular clothes and post them then....I am just so excited to see the difference I couldn't wait to post these. I LOVE my band!

I posted on another thread...but thought I'd add my pics to this one too. The before pic was in June...a month before my surgery. The after pics are 16 weeks post surgery and 100.8 pounds later.

This thread is such motivation for me. I have not checked in for a while, but you are all doing so great! I am stuck right now, but more than 1/2 way there. I thought I would post my 6 month pics. The first one is the week before surgery, the 2nd is July and the last is 10/30.

Halfway there! I have slowed down a lot in the last few weeks, mostly due to my own poor choices. But I am back on track and ready to make it the next 40!

First pics are 5 days before surgery, after losing 10 lbs pre surgery, and the other two are pin up girl pictures from Halloween.

I haven't posted any pics here for a long time, so thought I'd do an update. I had surgery 9-5-06, and lost 108 to goal w/in 9 mo. I'm now down a few more pounds, and have been holding pretty steady for the past five months.

Before, about 275 lbs, size 26:

After, about 160 lbs., size 8-10:

Oh and btw excuse the open mouth in the second pic....my husband was too impatient to wait for me to stop talking before he took the pics. EEEK all of these pics are about the worst I have ever taken LOL

      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?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
