genlady265 0 Posted April 29, 2008 This is my first post. I had lap band surgery on March 25, 2008 and got my first fill on April 23. So far so good. I was sooooo happy to get off of the liquids and pureed foods. I still mash my food and chew like crazy but I have lost a total of 37 pounds since I filled out the surgery application a year ago. The doctor wanted me to lose 15 pounds before surgery but I lost 22 pounds before surgery. My doctor is Dr. Jay Jan in Portland, Oregon. Lap Band is the best tool for me to lose weight. I haven't had any problems so far. Would love to hear from you'all for any tips that might help me lose some more lbs. Any good recipes? Barbara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
