Before and After Lap Band Surgery - PICTURES ONLY



Recommended Posts

This is me with my husband in August, on the dinner train in Fort Myers, at most likely my heaviest.

The second picture is me on Christimas after losing some weight, presurgery. Also the outfit is hiding some weight!

I love looking at everyone's before and after pics. :girl_hug: We had a birthday party for my youngest son today, and I was clowning around. My DH took a photo...it's not the best, but I thought it was fun. :mad:

Here's me in Jan. '06 (right after banding) and one in Dec. '05:

And here is me today:

Hello all. I haven't visited for awhile, but thought I would post a before and after picture. The before was on surgery day, May 9, 2006. The after was February 23, 2007. From a size 22 pants to size 12. Size 2x top to a large (Mediums are still a little too snug.) I am not at goal, but even if I didn't loose another lb, I would consider this a success.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
