Hi All

Have not been on site for a while now.

I have enjoyed reading everyones posts.

Can anyone tell me how long does a fill usually last. I notice I start getting hungry at about the 4th week.

I am doing well . My scales I have lost 20kgs (banded April 06).

Things are going well except I am at the stage I need another fill as I have become ravenous.

Am seeing Dr this Friday.:clap2:

Cheers

Bronnie,

I am a believer if I see the evidence it works.

3 of my friends have had lapbank and each of them has lost in the vicinity 0f 60kg each.

I know I dont have to loose that much but i know that it may take some time but it does actually work, after years of endless diets and lots of $$$$$$$$$$$.

Cheers

      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.
