Hello out there. I am new to the blog world and learning. I had lapband surgery May 16th. Pre-surgery weight was 240 lbs, Surgery day weight was 230 and I just hit 211 today. I feel great!! I looking forward to my first fill on July 7th. I really have no restriction now and hope to feel a difference after the fill.

I have enjoyed reading this blog for a couple of months now so decided to jump in. My first question is......how do you get the ticker added to the bottom of your posts?

I will be watching the site for a report on how your fill goes. I am anxious to get that "full" feeling because I think that any day now the self-control is going to fail. I'm also a little unsure about what to expect at the fill. Is it easy, does it feel uncomfortable, will I feel naseated or whatever........you get the idea. Good luck on Monday!

To make a ticker just slick on mine and then choose "create your own ticker" then make it and copy the code when you are done and paste it in your signature.

This is funny. I have three Airedale girls; Holly 5yrs & 85 lbs, Maggie 6 yrs and 65 lbs, and Teeny Tiny Teri who is 12 yrs and only 50 lbs because she has unoperable cancer and is sliding downward. Isn't Maggie the perfect name for an Airedale? My husband and I can't imagine life without the dales.

      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.
