Hi all,

Im new to the forum tonight, I had lapband surgery done on August 3rd and am down 40 lbs.. IM feeling recently that this is enough?? My doctor says im doing fine, he only wants me to lose 4-5 lbs a month. So am i supposed to be feeling like im not doing alright? My dr is Dr Sudan in OMaha Nebraska...I dot not have my own website, maybe i should i dont know. IM open to any suggestions , tips, questions, and answers.....:help:

First off welcome to LBT!! 40 lbs since August is great. Well I'm speaking my opinion here...but is your doctor fat, has he/she had to battle weight their whole life??? Then I would say you lose how ever and how much you want to lose...heck if your body is dropping 4-5 lbs a week instead of a month that is impressive....you do what YOU feel is right for you. After all sweetie it's your body!!

Good luck and keep us posted. IM me anytime if you want to chat.

Blessings

Hey, I think you are doing great! Each of us have different ways of losing weight. As for me, in the last two weeks there was no changes at all even I was very strict with myself on this diet and then all the sudden this week, it starting to drop off.
