luv2laugh 0 Posted September 30, 2007 Congrats Shawnee! I had my lapband the day after you! I jealous about the 9 lb weight loss! I actually gained 7 pounds (I'm 4 days out) since the day of surgery - I'm blaming it on the IV fluids though... Brenda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
