Recommended Posts

HI everyone, hope all is well with all of you. I don't get much time to post here lately. It takes me forever now to catch up on threads that I have missed. I just wanted to say hi to everyone, it has been awhile. I am doing fine, I am still losing since my unfill. I am so glad that I did that it was a very rough 7 days to be overfilled.

I just can't get over how much this site has grown. Just goes to show you that there is a lot of people out there searching for help. This is a great place, just wanted you to know that. I wouldn't be where I am today. 67 pounds lighter is only part of it. I have got some great advise from this site. I made my final decision to have the lapband because of this site. It is a great place and I am glad that everyone can share their experiences here and we can all come and learn from each other.

Hope you all are doing well. Take care and have a wonderfull day!!

Always Kathy

Live every day as if it were your last and then some day you ll be right.

Kathy - I am glad you are still losing after the unfill. It's important for some of us to hear that, sometimes we are so afraid of taking out that little bit for fear of losing our restriction. I hope you can post more often, we miss your smiling face here!

Hi Kathy! Glad to hear you're well and still losing. I recently had an overfill myself and hung onto it for 6 days. It was such a relief to get that unfill!

I also have a tough time keeping up with all the posts I've missed when I don't log in as often as I used to!! And, like you, I also noticed how much the site has grown. More users, more posts...hopefully, more visibility/information/knowledge for and about the lap band!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
