Has your sex life changed since getting the band?
DonHoll1 replied to 000000000's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I have the desire, sadly no bf right now. I think that may change now that i look better and feel better about myself. I made no attempt to meet anyone when i was 237. I did not feel sexy or good about me. Things are looking a lot better now. Donna -
:hungry::wave:I hope i never need to have mine out. I don`t know who in the world would pay for it. I was a self pay and it took all my money to get mine put in. Donna

YOU CAN`T EAT CARBS AND LOSE WEIGHT. I eat a lot of vegie Soup and homemade chicken soup. I put potatoes in both and i am losing quite well. Calories in- calories out. Works for me. Donna

You look great!!!!!! Congrats!!! Donna

You need to follow your post-op diet. Call your doctor about your concerns. I don`t think you should be on soft food yet. Good luck Donna

i wondering if this only works for the first month then...it's just counting calories
DonHoll1 replied to wintersunshine's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
The band helps me a great deal. It really reduces my hunger and that makes it possible for me to make better food choices and eat a lot less. I also go to the gym five times a week. I count my calories because i want to know how i am doing and if i need to cut back. It is the best thing i have ever done for myself. ( outside of going to college so i don`t have to depend on someone else to support me) Donna -
Best of luck with your test. Your surgeon worries me. Donna

What do you (anyone) think?
DonHoll1 replied to hoping's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I think this is something you do for you, not for your bf. So what matters is what you think. Good luck, Donna -

DonHoll1 replied to wadew1976's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Are you writing down your calories? Thats what i do , that way i know when i need to quit for the day.I eat more than what some do, about 1500 to 1600 a day. I am losing though so i`m happy with that. I go to the gym five times a week so that helps. Donna -

You can get the surgery done in Mexico for as little as 8000. I was a self pay and had to get money from my retirement fund. My doctor in Mexico was great and everything is included in one price. Good luck. Donna

I did not take any before pictures. I hated the way i looked and did not want any pictures of it. Also i do not know how to post pics on this site . Why is it that you can`t see a lot of the pics people post. They won`t come up when you click the x.???? Donna

Should I do lap band surgery?
DonHoll1 replied to happysilly307's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Having the band has really reduced my appetite and made it a lot easier for me to make the right choices. I love mine. Donna -
