I had the lap band August 13th, 2010. I have lost 16 lbs to date and feel I have more energy. I will get my first fill September 7th. This is a great change in my life and one that I intend to take full advantage of. Thanks to modern medicine, the Lap Band will give me an opportunity to feel better about myself. This will also provide me with the tools to keep on track and take care of me. Since the surgery, I no longer have poor circulation in my legs, my back feels better and my BP has decreased. I know that I have a long way to go but just taking the few steps feels wonderful. I wanted to know if anyone else lost more or less weight and how they felt about that? What are some of the things that went wrong, or am I not losing enough weight at stated in the books?
