Rockn4u 1 Posted April 3, 2007 Dude! I might have, you got lucky Twice! Recovery is going good, I started out having some trouble keeping liquids down, but now no problem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
txbecca 0 Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks Rocko.. I'm glad I saw it.. it gets confusing to keep up with who posts were, I wish they were a bit more organized, or only showed current. I'm glad you posted it twice, cause I've only seen it once. It's a great article I sent it to my family members and posted the 4 food groups on the fridge. Are you still on liquids? or have you progressed to mushies. creamies yet? I'm toying with some cottage cheese today.. just a few bites. I can't stand those Protein Drinks.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rockn4u 1 Posted April 3, 2007 I'm probably getting around 600-700 Calories a day, starting yesterday. I'm down 30lbs from 3/12/07 That's with about 30min or so of exercise everyday. I'm pretty pleased so far, just wish this was available 10yrs ago! Rocko~` Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mylapspirit 2 Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks Rockn4u! Awesome article! You know ladies - men lose a lot faster!!! There is a guy in our support group who was lap banded on May 25th,2006 and lost 155 pounds by 2/1/07. He looks awesome and is already to goal. i hope i can do as well as he can. he runs one mile a day on his treadmill and does this 4 or 5 days per week. he says he will never be fat again.

mylapspirit 2 Posted April 3, 2007 Yep, he followed all the rules. You are doing great too. This website is really helping me - everyone in our area does the gastric bypass thing and there are not too many lapbanders to get support form. Relatively new to our area. Thank you for all your help. Just out of curiousity can you tell me how much it cost in Mexico??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COLLECTOR 0 Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks for the link Rockn4u. Great job on the weight loss. Did you get the taste of the Vitamins out of your mouth? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beachgirl 2 Posted April 4, 2007 Mine was 8500 in Mexico and that was for everything from start to finish and free fills for life. My surgeon has trained most US Surgeons and all of them in Houston and had done more than 6000 bands so I really feel I had a great doc and everything went great. The hospital was beautiful and so was Monterrey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
