Hi...new lap band and new to LBT

myfoursons · March 10, 2007

Hi all! I just found this forum. I had my lap band on Jan. 31, 2007. I just had my first fill of 1cc on February 7. I weighed 245 at the beggining of this journey. I use my high weight before I started jumping through all of the hoops of getting approved because I lost some weight before my surgery date. Anyway, in the whole process, I am now down to 219. So, 26 lbs.

Oh, also, I am from Lawrence, KS. I am a married 31 yr. old mother of four.

So far, I have not had any complications from the band. The only adverse thing I have felt is what seems to be extended fatigue. Honestly, it isn't like I had a ton of energy pre-op.

Well, anyway, I am glad I found this place. It should be exciting to hear everyone's stories.
