Happy 55th Birthday rockycp58!

2 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 2nd Anniversary rockycp58!

I have had one fill so far, back in June. I went back to the Dr. last week and he said I was doing so good I didn't need another yet. I feel so good doing this (as I use to come home in a sugar coma after work)that I choose not to eat any sweets or bread. I drink a scoop of protein mix (Body Fortress) in with my coffee in the morning and get the rest of my protein throughout the day. I have made sure to implement exercise. I now have a bicycle that I ride and alternate walking & riding at least 3x a week. Also, don't get discouraged I have hit 2 -3weeks plateaus where I wouldn't lose anything, then weight would start dropping again. It takes alot for our bodies to get use to these changes. Thanks for the compliments and good luck on your journey.

Hi,

I was looking through before and after pictures and was really happy to see that the lapband is working for you. I must also admit that I am quite jealous! ha. I was wondering if you have had any fills yet. So far, I lost more weight doing the protein shake diet BEFORE the operation than what I have lost after it! You've lost so much in just 7-8 weeks! It's been 4 weeks for me and nothing much is happening. Keep up the good work. And advice would be great! And congratulations on you wedding.
