LBT more than a year later



Recommended Posts

I love this site.

It's been well over a year since I got started on here. I know my avatar says I've been on for ages but I didn't really start hanging around until after I was banded.

Well, I think this site is fantastic. There are pages and pages of stuff I never read, but low and behold something new pops up and 20 minutes later reading everyones experiences and I have a better understanding about what I can expect.

Specifically? I just got a fill today. I was on the fence about getting it, I'm very close to my sweet spot. Anyway, I feel pretty confident that I can ride this out a few days if I stick to my beginning bandster rules. I read a few threads that agree with that and some other things to be mindful of and I'm just relieved.

Thanks so much for all the support. It's appreciated.

Juli, congratulations on the weight loss! You've done fantastic and I hope you are proud of yourself.

I agree that this is a fantastic site...for the most part. :) There is a lot of knowledge and support available. I highly recommend it to anyone thinking about banding, about to be banded or banded already. There is a wealth of experience here to rely on.

Keep up the good work!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
