I love your confidence and that you remember you are better than to go back to someone who didn't treat you so well! You go girl!

I am 24 years old and am 4 days post op from the lap band. I would like to meet someone who is post or pre op with the band. I am in Atlanta,Ga and am looking forward to a new journey.

Hello, I had my first full Aug 5th and my menstrual cycle normally begins on the 18th of each month. Does an adjustment delay a woman's menstrual cycle? I just wonder if any of you ladies had this problem.

You look amazing, keep it up!

Hello! Congratulations on your lapband journey. I must say that this is the start of a new and improved lifestyle. My pre op days I was nervous, excited, and couldn't believe that I was having surgery. Follow all of your pre op instructions given to you by your surgeon. The day of surgery you might have mixed emotions but stay positive it will all be fine. When you recover your muscles will be weak so you need to walk that is really important and make sure you take your Vitamins and Protein.

Hello! I am 25 years old, residing in Stone Mtn, Ga. I was banded June 27 2013. I have no children am in school pt time for biology and work full time in logistics. Please feel free to message me privately.

Thank you all for sharing your advice and personal experiences. I feel better to know that this is a new beginning to living healthy. I consumed more protein today and feel much better, I think I was lacking the proper nutrients.

Hello fellow lapbanders, I am 1 month and 1 week post op and went for my first full yesterday and received 3.6cc in my band. I am on liquids for the remainder of the day. I have read that feeling week and irritable is normal due to the adjustment. I have lost 25 lbs so far and am trying to not let my emotions get the best of me due to this restriction. Is there any advice anyone could share about there experiences with adjustments? Thank you, Brittany

Congrats on your new lap band journey I will be 3 weeks post op on Thursday, so how is everything going for you?

Congratulations!! You look amazing!!

I was banded June 27th and I must say the pain has mainly been where my port is. I am trying to consume enough liquids to remain hydrated but i dont want to drink too much where i would be sick, for the most part I have been cranky and groggy because the pain is unbearable at times. Also my sutures are beginning to itch like crazy!

Hello, So I am post op day 4 and I feel so miserable. I am trying to stay positive around family and friends but I don't feel like being bothered because I am in pain. I have no appetite and everyone is telling me to drink when I don't want it or to walk when I feel weak.

Thank you all I will go get my water now and get my walking in. I wanted to go walk a track, do you think that it is too soon for that?
