I went in for a lap band fill today....



Recommended Posts

I had point 1 cc put in this 4cc band, so it has tamed my appetite, and I will be on liquids for a while.

But i feel Great ! When I first went in 12 weeks ago I weighed 288. Today I weigh 255 Difference of

33 Lbs... I was shocked myself, because I only go by his scale. But I'm rite in the Ball Park.

If this keeps up, I can see, feel, smell, taste, and DREAM of Onderland in sight for the end of this year.

If it slows down, then let say by Easter.....

If that happens,,,, it will be the first time since I was a Teenager.

I almost forgot,,,,, When I first got weighed for my pre op diet, I weighed 356.

It took a while to happen, but that's 101 Lbs. Gone for Good !

Slowly but steady, this Turtle will keep moving along.

You will in time notice a big difference. If the first fills are not all that much, then like the rest of us, you probably won't even notice it. But once it does kick in,,, you will be able to tell the difference.

Thanks, Shirley

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
