I just got my LapBand in on November 13th and I am not going to lie I have been very, very hungry on this liquid diet to the point where my stomach hurts so bad.... this morning and was thinking screw this I am going to eat something...before I did I got a glass of Water and decided to go on this website. I want to thank every single person on here. Not only do I understand how hard this stage is BUT! I am not the only one and IT!!! will get better. Reading all of the comments good and bad just makes me understand that losing weight is not easy on anyone and we all need support especially going through the LapBand process.

I put the scale away.

I am sticking to my liquids.< /p>

xoxo

Congratulations on sticking with it! The liquid stage will pass and things will get better. It might take a few weeks, but its so worth it.

Good for you.... I know the beginning is VERY hard... and it takes determination. When people hear I've had the lapband, they assume that I haven't had to work for my weight loss... NOT true. I've fought for evey pound. Keep up the determination...and keep in mind... this will pass... I will be healthier...

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
