How do YOU define Success?
dgoertz1 replied to Baba Wawa's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Congrats on success stories. I was banded 4 1/2 month ago and I have lost 63 lbs. I credit my success to me and my own determination. I knew it was now or never. 59 years old ( young) lol and tired of being overweight. Lap band with plication was the best thing I ever did. No need for a fill yet but will get one if I need it. 7 lbs from goal. Have not been back to doctor since December ( he is a jerk) but will go see him when I reach goal. Protein and low calorie intake. Haven't had one bit of all the things I loved. Good luck to all. It's up to you if you really want it. -

Just a low carb high protein diet. Lots of fish EAS protein drinks and low carb veggies. I love pickles now I buy smoked turkey weight watcher cheese. Since I have no fills I can eat anything but choose only these to eat. Good luck! -
I had my surgery at True Results in The Woodlands.

The only restriction I have is me just stopping when I think I've had enough. Trying to venture out a bit and eat different things. I've lost 45 lbs in 10 weeks and know that it will slow down now. I only planned on losing 20 more but WTH I will just see how it goes. Should go back to doctor soon but ben too busy. I feel great and pleased with my plication and band. Good luck to us all! -

I wasn't allowed to eat anything but Soups and mushies til week 7. I think the plication has helped the most and a lot of determination. No exercise yet but soon. Low carbs and low fat. -
