Hi everyone, let me start by introducing myself. My name is Tamara I'm 27 living in the greater Houston area. I decided on the lap band about 8 months ago when I stepped on the scale and it said 299. Since that day I have been doing all the nessecary pre requirements my insurance requires and after 6 months my surgery day has finally arrived. Once I'm home later today I'll post again on how everything went.

Hi everyone, my name is Nadine and I am 36 years old. I just had my lap band put in on Jan 9, 2013. My highest weight was 269 and I am looking to get to 170. I hope we can share ideas with everyone to help us through this and our new life bday as I call it....

I hope you both are doing well. I'm still trying to figure out how to use this darn group I've created. Today is 4 weeks since I started my preop diet and I'm one week postop and down 30 lbs. Yeah. Still a long way to go though!

Good or you. Keep up the great work. I had a hard time last week when my regular schedule was changed. I know I shoveled but missing the gym and not eating right really took me back. Have job ever had ones of those week? If so how did you deal with it?

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
