Hello! Newby Here! Surgery was 10/12/10.



Recommended Posts

Hello! I was on the OH website and I still am. But I am having some trouble with a couple of trolls there who are band haters and had revision surgery. So I am looking for a new support site!

I am 34 and just got banded with the LAP-BAND® 10/12/10. I am doing pretty goo. Back to work! Today is my first day on mushies! Happy to be off the liquids!

My start weight was 327. I was down 316 for surgery. I have not gotten on a scale since surgery. Trying to wait till my follow up appt on 10/28/10.

I am a mother and wife. I husband and I celebrated 8 years together on 10/08/10!! I have 2 little boys! One turned 2 TODAY! And the other will be 5 in January.

I am so excited to start this journey! I hope being here I can learn from those ahead of me and help those behind me in this process!

I look forward to getting to know you all!

Angela

Congrats! Welcome to the starting of the new you!

I was banded almost 4 months ago. I am 35 and have 3 kiddos. It's amazing how much better we feel with some weight gone! I actually want to play with the kids and have fun doing it!

Yeah for the mushies! So much better than drinking your food! And good for you on the scale. I too didn't own one, and didn't get on it except for dr appts. I liked to be pleasantly surprised each time, and I was. I did buy a Wii balance board and now weigh myself once a week on it.

Keep up the good work!

I've been progressing every day since joining the forum. It makes me feel better than anything. I hope in the next few months will be nice to talk to me.

You will love it on this site, I promise! So many supporters on here. No "band haters"! I love coming on here...It's my secret when I first get to work in the morning for about 30min. My guilty pleasure! It helps me start off my day on the right foot.

WELCOME!:thumbup:
