one month since i got my lap band and.....
tmartinez posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
so I planned on weighing in on jan 11 but figured since today marks the one month date since i had surgery i figured wth! i took everything off n got on my scale. it said 231!!! at first i thought it said 241 and i was disappointed but then i looked again n realized i read the scale wrong. i was so shocked but happy as hell. it said 231..:unbelievable i didnt expect to lose that much. the last weigh in on dec 28 i was 237...i figured I really wouldn't lose anything because i havent really been walking daily(too cold or rainy). but seeing that today has motivated me to get my butt up n suck it up n walk 30 minutes a day..and start working out in two weeks since itll be six weeks since the surgery. yayyyyyy im so happy -
so i just got my first fill today. 1cc...i thought i didnt have any saline in my band but come to find out i already had 7cc from my surgery...so she added 1cc n ill go back in 4 weeks to see if i need an adjustment. wasn't bad at all. no numbing the port area just a tiny poke. no issues keeping fluids down! woohoo!

iron and b12 too. i bought b12 from walmart you take one 3/day. very easy just put under your tongue for 30 seconds then chew what's left

i was extremely anxious too! i kept thinking what if it doesn't work or i eat too much! but now being banded for one month today i now know having lap band surgery was the best decision of my life. I'm slowly but surely falling back in love with life and exploring new things again! I haven't felt this way in years!

I bought EAS carbvantage protein shakes from walmart and they're great. very filling and reasonably priced at $4.97/four pack -
