I have heard great things about her as well. I just saw that the other person on here was using Dr. Fielding and wanted to know if she had read the book.

Just a question, Leslee, have you read the book he co-wrote with Kahliah Ali, Fighting Weight? I use it everyday it is awesome.

I was banded on June 17th as of today I have lost 41lbs and I have my first fill Thursday. Excited does not even cover it!

juliegeraci- Thank you for responding! Actually I have been to eat a WHOLE lot more this week and have gain a pound but I have contacted the doctors office and I am scheduled for a fill next Thursday. They told me I was doing fine not to worry about it! So with that I think I will need the fill next Thursday! I am a little neverous about that!

BayCityBander---Don't worry about it! We are all going to have those moments. Your doing great just keep it up. I have gained a pound this week and I am alittle up happy myself. We have to keep in mind we did not gain it overnight and losing it overnight is not an option either. Everyone is different and as long as we are working with our band not againist it the REWARDS will come in time!

Dr. Dewitt is awesome! My only is advice is to listen to him and follow his directions carefully!

I have lost 34lbs in 4 weeks!

Who is your surgeon alabamagirl1975? I had lapband 6/17 by Dr. DeWitt in Birmingham. I am from Trussville.

I actually gained 2 lbs pre op but that was 9 days before surgery so as for the 2 days of liquids I do not know how much I lost they never weighed me in the hospital!

Awesome! Thank your for responding. I have really stepped up the exercise so I am sure that is part of it! I seem to be losing about a pound every other day! I am very happy with my choice to have the band!

Ok, I had my surgery on 6/17:thumbup: and as of today 7/21 I am have already lost 34lbs. I have read alot on here and I seem to be losing faster than most people. Anyone else lose this fast?:eek: I have NOT had a fill! :crying:
