Congratulations to you!!! You should be proud of that accomplishment. I've lost 25 and I've been stuck for a couple of weeks...weighing daily to just see an extra pound lost..lol.

Congratulations!!! I also had LapBand in November 2016. Just had my 2nd fill and down 30 pounds. I feel so much better already. One of the best life choices I made. Stay positive and strong.

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.

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!! You will inspire me

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.

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.

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?

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.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
