Looking forward to hearing from you all,

Debbie, what a great idea to post this! Us feb 09 bandsters may not post much but we're definitely here.

I haven't had much success yet with my band, but I think it because I haven't reached that key fill level. I've been a painfully slow loser, and haven't really lost more that 5 or so pounds since June. Hopefully that will change soon. Admittedly, I still do the whole emotional eating thing once in a while, but far less than I ever did a year ago. So I guess that's a score for me.

I can't wait to hear from other Fabulous February Bandsters!

Babe, those are five pounds you won't see again, and no matter how small the weight loss seems, it's still a victory! So good for you!

I haven't lost as much as I'd hoped too, either, because like you, I haven't always made the best food choices. But you know what? I'm still glad I have this band; it's the best thing I could have done for myself. Besides, there are always those nonscale victories.

Congrats! Feb 09rs...lol I am happy I was able to do the surgery and even though I have been discouraged due to the super slow loss, I would do it again!

ButterflyGrl, I feel the same way. I haven't lost as much as I'd hoped to by this time, but I'm glad I got banded!

Saahney, I know it's been a while, but how did your fill go?

Debbie

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
