In my 6 months of medically supervised weight loss, I managed to lose 6 lbs. But somehow, in the 3 weeks since my 6 month appointment I've managed to lose 7 lbs. I haven't actively been doing anything different, but apparently, being able to focus 100% on just getting healthy is a way more successful approach than focusing on trying to lose (or even just not gain) weight! I still have work to do in getting myself going in the exercise department, but I'm feeling really good about my relationship with food these days!

Mine is Sept. 7th and it seems so far away, I can't wait to get this band out and get the ball rolling again

I had my second psych visit today and am cleared.... so excited I'm hoping to get my date soon

On a good note I've lost 30 lbs since April

Anybody on here doing surgery in Mexico? I am using the same place a coworker used 2 years ago. She also had other family members do it after her. Anybody have experience or heard of dr. verboonen? Kinda skeptical, but my insurance doesn't cover it and my PCP signed off on it. Surgery date schedule for 9/14/15. Just trying to get healthy for my son and husband.

Hi there-I just called my lapband doc to discuss getting the sleeve. Would be very interested to hear how your process has been since you are/will be previously banded.

I lost 30 lbs since I was banded in 2014. I never had restriction and really hope I am approved by insurance.

Mine is Sept. 7th and it seems so far away, I can't wait to get this band out and get the ball rolling again

This is so exciting that everyone is getting their dates! I still have to wait until Aug 19th for my final NUT appt. Then they will submit to insurance. Hope I will know my date in a month or so.

So happy for all of you! We are finally getting close!
