Happy Days Are Here Again



Recommended Posts

Having the lapband surgery on March 5th 2008 has given me my life back. I was home bound for years. Good part of the time spent in bed. I had surgery on my back twice total of 4 disc I have knee problems which is getting better. high blood pressure ,cholesterol . I am off of 4 medications now. I go out almost every day I can go to stores to shop now instead of shopping on line or off television . Was able to go to Atlantic City. Bingo, and walks. I really didn't care wether I lived or not I was depressed almost gave up completly. Then I saw Lapband I went to seminar And I thought I have nothing to lose but this weight so I did it. Best thing I ever did in my life I have had no complications. Lost over 60 pounds so far. I feel great. I know I have a long way to go . But with my band I can do it for sure. I am a Happy Lady now!!! I am The Person in the Blue both Pictures.

      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! 😞
