jeannie95z 2 Posted January 5, 2017 Congratulations!!! I also had LapBand in November 2016. Just had my 2nd fill and down 30 pounds. I feel so much better already.

Banded_Beauty 71 Posted January 5, 2017 Thanks y'all, I've been very happy with my band so far. @@weneebug it will happen, just seems to take a little more patience then we want to give at times. But it will happen. LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcordova204 9 Posted January 7, 2017 Congratulations @@Banded_Beauty!!! I'm at a stall right now I'm 7 weeks post op, down 12 lbs. feeling good but hope to see the scale drop some more. Christmas was a bit challenging but so much better than previous years! I've started exercising, 30-40 mins per day, so things should turn around. I go for my 2nd fill in Jan 20th. At this point I only have 3.5 cc's so hopefully that top up will help. You should be proud!!! Way to go. I would love to stay connected congrats!!

Banded_Beauty 71 Posted January 8, 2017 Thank you!! @@jcordova204 please let's keep in touch! I know the more people I can talk to that is in the same boat as myself makes such a difference. I actually think I may be in my green zone finally. I lost 2 more lbs already. I'm at 5cc's. I really feel full most of my morning until afternoon. I make myself drink my Protein shake though. But food isn't on my mind until 12-1pm. I hope to encourage everyone and we can all "band" together and help each other out when we struggle thru. This really has been the best decision I have made for myself. LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weneebug 88 Posted January 8, 2017 I am still at a stall and it is driving me crazy. Joined a gym and started working out. Totally changed my eating habits but the scales are just not moving. I am choosing better foods but still have an issue with Portion Control. I go on the 24th for my next fill. I only have 2cc right now. @@weneebug, how's it going?

jcordova204 9 Posted January 10, 2017 So I can eat raw cauliflower and baby carrots fairly easily.. do you think this means that I definitely need more fill? I only have 3.5 cc's and am not losing weight.. I have been stalled between 11/12 lbs for the last two (almost three).any thoughts?

Banded_Beauty 71 Posted January 10, 2017 I would defiantly get another fill. You may still be able to eat those things just fine but not losing weight would defiantly make me go back for another fill asap. LapBand ~ November 1, 2016 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
