Dearest All Who's Reading,

 

This is my first blog entry, as you can see. I just wanted to post about my lapband experience so far and a little about myself for those of you are interested in knowing. I had my surgery on October 8th, 2009 and it was successful. Dr. Brian Swain, from Murray Calloway County Hospital in Murray, KY performed the placement of the band for me. He is wonderful and I highly recommend him. My starting weight was 232 pounds and my weight as of today, 10/19/09 is 215 pounds, with a grand total weight loss of 17 pounds. My goal weight for myself is 125-130 pounds. I think I would feel wonderful at that weight. The weight based on my height and age is supposed to be like 116 and I'm sorry but I think I would look anorexic at that weight HAHA...anybody agree? I'm 5'2 1/4" tall and 23 years old. Yeah, I'm a shorty lol....

 

Anyhoo...a little more about me, besides that I had lapband done. I am a single mother of one little beautiful boy named Kaiden Jace. He just turned 2 years old last month. His father lives in Ohio and doesn't have much to do with him, which is sad but ok really. He wouldn't be a good influence on him at all. I am a Christian, a proud Christian. I live in a little townhouse, 2 br, 1 1/2 bath...perfect size for me and my son. I am a college student and I will be working back for the college again soon, in January when the Spring semester starts. If you have any questions about me or my journey, feel free to ask. I love to make friends....and we all need support! Hope you have an amazing day and God Bless!!

Hey there- i was banded on Oct.14th. I feel pretty good 5 days out. I started at 242 when I went to the band seminar, surgery day I was 220 and now I am 213.6 today. (5'5" and 37). I am most nervous about something happening to the port or something.....but otherwise am very happy with the decision I have made. I too am a Christian! I wish you the very best. Keep me posted/message me anytime!!! take care.
