Was banded on jan 17th,2009. Have lost 82 pounds so far. Getting the lapband was the best decision i have ever made. Have adjusted to the new eating habit, feel so much better, lots of energy have more self confidence and a new step in my walk. Wish everyone who has the lapband done the best results,:confused:

Tammy: Thank you so much. The main thing i can tell you is just enjoy your new life and do remeber to chew chew chew. I stay away from chicken with skin on it because it is easy to get stuck. The exercise i do is play baasketball, walk , and my treadmill. I'm manily doing the treadmil because here in Texas the summer's are extremely hot. You are doing great also. I eat alot of oatmeal in the a.m. and for lunch youqurt and wheat thins, some meat but only the size odf a deck of cards. I do eat alot of vegetables. I stay away from any fried foods. I wish you all the luck in the world just stay focus and you will do great. Also i go into the chat roomanytime you want to chat just give me a message i will be glad to chat with you anytime. Judy

      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.
