Hi- I just wanted to say that I love this site, it's much more personable than the others and you guys have made me feel so much at ease with my decision to have the band. I can't believe that its only 3 days from now... Is anyone else from Connecticut? Also Jenna- I love seeing your posts, I am the exact size you were when you started! Height , weight,everything. It's great to see where you are now. Thanks everyone!:)

3 days! Are you excited or WHAT?!? I love this site, too. It's a good thing that work has been so slow for the last month or so - or I might get fired for spending all my time on-line! LOL.

The word that comes to mind for me is Loving. Folks on this site are generally loving and kind - compassion, thy name is LBT!

Love you guys!

Hi Zoe! I'm still around, just not much time lately!!! I got my band on 8/19 and just started eating real food on this past Friday, Yahoo! I had my first PB though yesterday:(. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be though. I'm down 21lbs total, but that has slowed now that I'm on regular food. Thanks for thinking of me! How are you doing? Good I hope! Bye, Vanessa

      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!!

      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! 😞
