Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor I would like a female buddy...



Recommended Posts

Hi, I live in Colorado and am looking for someone to be a buddy with. I've posted on other boards before and haven't had a whole lot of luck.

A little about me, I am 26 and was recently banded with a Realize band on 10/2/08. At my doctor's office yesterday I have so far lost 19 pounds. I have been married for 2 and 1/2 years now and do not have any children yet.

If anyone is interested and is ready to be accountable with me, please let me know.

Thanks.

Hey,

I would like a buddy to keep me accountable too. I am from washington, but i got banded by dr. kirshenbaum in denver. I am currently in denver today for my 2nd fill.

It looks like we started out pretty much the same weight. how tall are you?

Sweet! I am only 2 weeks post-op, but it sucks not having someone to talk to (because I am the only one I know with a band) about stuff sometimes. I am 6' tall, how tall are you? You look really great in your pictures BTW. You have made some really great progress!! :) How many CC's do you have in your band now? Do you always come here to Denver to get your fills or have you gone to a fill center where you live?

If you want, you can PM me and then our convo isn't so public... :rolleyes2: Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Sorry if I misspell (did I even spell "misspell" right? ha-ha) things, but the spell check on here sucks and I don't want to download somthing from a 3rd party website.

      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.
