Calanne I would love to meet with you sometime and pick your band brain since you were banded 20 months ago. Pearland only takes a little bit to get there. My best friend lives there. I go 518 or 45 to Dixie Farm Rd or Beltway to the exit by the golf course. Depends on where I am going. We will have to plan once I get settles and can eat "food". Phyllis

Vinnie,

It does take a few days, I was lucky and went right before my surgery, but then not again for 4 days.

I am now 17 days post op and having to "maintain the bathroom" issues with extra Fiber. I can actually get that pill down. Woo hoo!!!:pray2::rolleyes2:

Hi Tonyac,

I just read your story. Amazing! You said you had surgery in Sugar Land ( I live in SL), could you please give the phone number of your Doctor? I need a fill, maybe he can help me.

Thanks,

Marivi

Hi everyone! I live and Sugar Land and was banded 11/20 by Dr. Spivak. I love my band. I've had absolutely no problems and I've lost 15 pounds since surgery and 5 on pre-op diet.

I am great after the band. I love it. I am losing weight slow but steady. Fighting head hunger can be difficult but not as bad as before the band.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
