JohnC 31 Posted June 20, 2013 I went in today for my 30 day follow up & I'm down 30 lbs. My doc was very pleased with me since he's gone through all the struggles with with the lap-band for the last five years. So far I'm much happier with the sleeve. 2 TV-Duhhh!!! and Cheer Mama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexasT 99 Posted June 20, 2013 Way to go! As a former band sufferer also I welcome you over from the "Dark Side" . You WILL meet goal using the sleeve, and it looks like you are well on your way! 1 Cheer Mama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigerbelle 328 Posted June 20, 2013 good update...keep up the good work! I was only down post-op 1 month about 22 pounds...had stalled around 3 weeks...since then losing has been slow, but at 6 weeks post-op I am now about 30 pounds down...I don't have a follow-up visit with my surgeon until another 2 weeks, which will be 2 months out...I hope I can be at least 5 more pounds down by then, so my total loss at my upcoming visit will be 35 pounds...if I could somehow make it to 40 lbs down by then, I would be super happy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kellybee63 2 Posted June 22, 2013 I lost 11 pounds on my pre op diet, and only 5 more since then -- and my surgery was June 3rd. REALLY frustrated and worried that I'm going to fail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disneymomma4 26 Posted June 22, 2013 That is awesome !!! I hope I have results like that. That is what I lost total is 2 years with my Lapband plus I've gained that plus 10 back. Ugh. That is great for you though. Keep it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
