Glad to hear your surgery went so well--on you way home by 10:30 WOW!! Hopefully you are planning on attending the exercise program at St. Mary's. It is a great program and you get a very personal training process. You can attend for 6 weeks as part of the lapband program and then decide if you wish to stay on or go somewhere else. I can tell you that I would never be walking as far or as fast as I am on the treadmill if I didn't have someone monitoring me like they do. It is like having your own personal trainer. maybe I will see you there one day.

I am so glad you all are doing so well. I had my surgery on July 10th @ Norton's and their practice is to spend the night and I'm glad I did. You all must be superwoman to come home so early. I had a good first night and half a day then the burning sensation in my stomach hit. I have been trying smaller amounts of thin liquids but the sensation is still there. I am not in any pain from the incision just this constant burning type sensation. I have to be off work for 4 weeks due to lifting restrictions and I am going to go out of my mind watching HGTV. I've tried to do stuff around the house but I really just don't feel like it. Good luck to all and keep in touch with how you are doing.

I had my surgery on the 9th and everything went great. Dr. Lusco and STM&E were great! The only issue I have is dealing with my mind and the food I want.

ldonna - What Y will you be going to? I currently go to the Northeast and Southeast for their Zumba classes that are awesome!

Zumba is based on Latin dance moves. You get a workout while having fun. Everyone that's in the class has a blast. You come out dripping....just from dancing. :unsure:

Anne - You will love Dr. Lusco! He is such a nice (young!) guy. I went for my 2 week post-op follow up and am so glad he's my doctor. He was very patient with me as I asked my loads of questions. When you get to your 1 week post-op and can attend the exercise physiologist at STM&E, Kirk is the same way! He let me sit down and ask away. I made the best decision by going with that group to get it done.

      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.

      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!!
