ready4nume 1 Posted October 29, 2012 i know most people are like what?? cancer patients don't need weightloss surgery? uh, ya huh,some do... here's the deal I was scheduled with my hubby to have lapband surgery back in march 2010 but life had different plans for me, in dec 2009 i was diagnosed with a brain tumor and had tohave emergency surgery to have it removed, then in jan 2010 2 wks after brain tumor removal surgery dr told me it was the big C WORD....that i only had 4-6months... long story short GOD IS ON THE THRONE AND STILL IN THE MIRACLE BUSINESS SO I AM STILL HERE, JUST LIKE I TOLD THE ONCOLOGIST I WOULD BE... ANYWAY finally after doing chemo/radiation and everything else under the sun in 2010, i was given the go ahead for lapband surgery in jan 2011, since then i have only lost right at 48-50lbs, discouraged is not even close to how i felt, i guess since the hubby lost 100lbs in his first year i just naturally thought i would too, NOT.... i don't pig out by any means, but still have plateaued off and have been at this weight for over 8 months... so i guess i am going to start all over and try to get another fill, I have only had 2 but already get stuck if i eat something too fast or just happen to not get it chewed up good enough... anyway not sure why i posted maybe just to get it out in the open and for me to be convince myself i'm gonna start over... anyway thanks for listening 1 nursesweetc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
