Hello All, my name is Lisa I had my lap band done on Monday June 22,2009. I have lost about 10 pounds in 2 weeks. I guess to some it could sound pretty good but for me I have been on the scale every morning and I feel like I should be dropping a pound a day !!!! (I KNOW THAT IS TOTALLY UNREALISTIC!!!) I am happy I decided on moving forward and getting the surgery I definately wasted too many years overweight,unhealthy and unhappy! My weight started becoming a problem after the birth of my last child, I weighed about 150-160 and always thought oh I can lose 30 pounds if I really want to!! WELL, I guess I never really wanted to because here I am at 220 going how did this happen????Well Iam to new at this to really give any advice but Iam eager to hear anything helpful.I feel lucky for the doctor I had I think he is very smart.capable and very easy to talk to.
