Congrats on ur success!! i too had the lap band, two years ago and my body rejected it!! it was taken out 5 weeks after it was put in... well here i am 8weeks out of being sleeved and couldnt be happier...weighed almost the same as you starting all this and am between 14s and 12s!!!! yea for us!!

LOL feel like im reading my own NSV"s!! i just realized the towel thing on sat!! and yesterday i bought my first size 12 levis!! yea hit 198 yresterday!! so happy for you too:)

thats my birthday!! lol yea for you!! good luck!

I am 4 weeks out and would like to start taking my medication in pill from again...like a big girl! lol i want to take my omeprozole and wellbutrin...think its been long enough? totally forgot to ask the doc at my follow up appt today thanks tracy

wow!! such much for patients privacy...thats a law! putting your business out there for everyone to hear....so unprofesional and extremly rude sorry that happened to you

glad you made the choice for a healthier life...you are a doc but you are human and have all the same struggles keep us posted

im coming up on three weeks too and have almost the same thing going on, lost 25 post op and 20 since surg...also think i feel like i have been grazing a little toooo much i am trying to walk some everyday hope that will help.just wanted to let you know your not alone at three weeks

good idea...i need to do that i put cream cheese on them but that slid down way toooo easy!!!

my sister was not on board with my decsion either in fact when it came down to it i didnt even tell her my exact surgery day until a fwe days before. i didnt want to hear the judgement. i believe this is why is see alot of plp keep their surgerys quiet for thesame reason...not to feel judjes even by our sisters sorry your going thru this but i know this is the best decsion i have made i am three weeks out and down 20 pounds more,,,love my sleeve

Ok so thought i would try chewing up a pita chip and see how it went down...well the answer is way too easy!! so i had another and another...at least with the sleeve i had to stop or i fear it wld have been like pre surg i really need to get back to work tooo much time to rumage around the kitchen!! im three weeks out and only have a twinge or two of pain where they took out the drain.

so doin super after surgery until yesterday when they took my jp drain out!! i swear my guts came with it!! bad pain in line of removal..help anyone else had this issue?????
