Dr. Britt is in Guntersville. He even did the surgery on his partner Dr. Groves. The staff is wonderful! In addition, since there are so many surgeries of this type in the Arab hospital, they are very well equipped to handle lapband patients. Everything from the size of wheelchairs to the correct food for post op, is specifically for the comfort of LB patients.

In regards to starting the 5k, I used the an app on my ipod similar to couch to 5k. Very easy to follow and it starts a little slower than the couch to 5k. It is called ease into 5k.

Good luck to all!

I am from Alabama and my sister and I had Lapband Surgery May 2011. I have lost 93lbs and she has lost 96lbs. Dr. Suggs in Decatur did ours. He has moved to Huntsville now and he is an awesome Dr. We have both had good experiences, not really anything bad, just getting adjusted to eating smaller portions. Hope everything goes great with you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
