    Banded 3-27

    That is great! You managed to loose a pound a day since you were banded. Well, I guess it may be over a pound a day because April 26 will be 30 days for you. Congrats! My doctor tells me the average weight lost is 2 pounds per week. Congrats again! Grammy in Columbus Banded April 14 Weight Lost to Date: 5.5 pounds

    new girl on the block

    Hi! I was banded April 14. One of the best things I ever done for MYSELF. Yes, it was worth it. I watched my mother pass away on March 30 of last year due to diabetes, hypertension, obesity and COPD. I made a decision then to drop 100 pounds by my 63rd birthday. I am 61.5 years old. Go for it. It is well worth it.

    needs to lose 10lbs by 05-07-08 help!

    You have time. Go on the post op liquid diet (clear liquids) and remember to get 70 grams of protein daily. It worked for me. Don't forget to exercise. It will make your recovery much easier.
  4. Hi! 61 year one grammy. 5 days post-op, feeling good. Soreness is about 2.5 out 10. I am retired 8 years ago and now work for my local church. I am in the chemical dependency field as a OCPS II (Ohio Certified Prevention Specialist II). Question: What should I expect after the first 'fill'? Any pain or discomfort? Grammy in Columbus

    Am I Too Old For Banding Opp

    I was banded on April 14 and I am 61. No, you are not too old to be banded. Probably one of the best decisions I ever made!

    Be encouraged. Prepare your body physically for the surgery by doing daily walks, 1800 calorie or less and two weeks post-op a full liquid diet. It will really help for a speedy recovery.

    I was banded on April 14 at Mt Carmel, West. All went well. Yes, the fees are normal (I checked with other sites/persons). My frustration was the time it took to reach my band date. I had all my clearances completed by August 1 but the insurance denied me twice. Finally got approval on January 4.

    Christian bandsters

    I am a born again, blood washed Christian. I had my Lap Band surgery on April 14 and had the saints praying for the anointing of the surgeons, nurses and technicans. All went well. Just very sore, like doing 20 sit ups for the very first time. Be blessed.

    How long does it take to return to activity after the surgery?

    This is a great site for the new sixties. My surgery date is April 14 and I am excited. It took 1 year for all the clearances. Will check in often. Grammy
  13. I am a 61 year old grandmother pumped up about my surgery. Surgery April 14. Anyone older than me that got banded? Just wondering, how did it go for you? Grammy
