misslinda 0 Posted November 29, 2008 Hello everyone, I found this site yesterday totally by mistake. I enjoyed reading the posts from other lap band patients and realized that some of the issues I had was experienced by others. I had the band surgery done on June 30th 2008 and at that time I was weighing 310 lbs. This morning I weighed 280.6. I have to admit that I was hoping to have lost more weight by now. I have had three fills and it wasn't until the last one that I really started to feel a difference. I have small goals set for myself and now my goal is to be down to 270 by Christmas. I had a choice to have the band or the bypass and there are days I wish I had chosen the bypass. Does anyone else feel that way? Linda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MacMadame 81 Posted November 30, 2008 Well, I didn't have a band but a sleeve. But some days I wonder "should I have had the DS?" (The sleeve is sometimes done as the first stage of a DS; IOW a DS is a sleeve plus intestinal re-routing.) But I know I don't really want one. It's just some weeks I only lose a pound and then I panic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
