Corrigan 75 Posted October 24, 2011 Hi! From your weight loss graph it seems like you started at the same BMI as I am currently (40ish) and there fore are looking at a similar loss to meet our goal. Was it difficult to get approval without being severely or morbidly obese from the start? Do you have any co-morbidity issues? Just curious is all. I am currently at aprox 265lbe and my goal is 175ish. Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Sounds like you are doing great! Keep it up. What has your weight loss rate been roughly? Thanks for your response I don't know if you were talking to me or not. I'm pretty old, 74, but I thought I'd like the rest of my life to be a little more comfortable so I decided on the band. I had diabetes and a few more so approval was easy. I had a very easy surgery and turned out to be one of the boring people who don't get very hungry, in fact at my appointment Tuesday, I'll opt out of a fill because I don't need it. I've been losing 5-6 lbs a week, that's a little much but I'm not really trying, that's just what it is. I hope you have as easy a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcadillacs5 62 Posted October 24, 2011 I wish someone would have told me that its easier to burb when you lean forward than letting it be regular. Also that it would burn when you pee after the catheter for a couple of days lol. Banded: Oct. 21st 2011 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
