How did you determine your goal?
taylor1989 replied to TheDuchess's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I picked 160. It technically still overweight but I can't picture myself there so I figured that would be a great long term goal. In some senses I think I will look anorexic at 160 but that's a total Loss of 83 pounds and 35 pound lighter than I've ever been able to get myself even on appetite suppressants (I bounced between 193-197 for 8 months while on phentermine until my body grew immune) -
I have my first fill on the 12th and I'm more nervous about that then I was the surgery. Honestly it the part of getting up and walking to a X-ray machine with a needle in my that terrifies me((I'm terrified of needles! When I was younger I use to get dizzy when I saw them so I stopped looking at them-this one I can't ignore though)

Who is your doctor now? I'm sure it's in here somewhere but I'm driving and didn't want to search lol. Congrats and good luck!! The first few day after surgery are the worst-as far as pre op I didn't have much trouble till day 9-10 (other than I messed day 1 up not thinking about it) -
That was fast! Congrats!!
-
I waited till day 3-4 after most the pain was gone lol

Not quite fully on topic but I've seen this mentioned a few times.... It seems extremely common to need to get gallbladder removed after the band...is it that common & should I be worried? Good luck to you
