Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor female, 35, banded 2 weeks ago



Recommended Posts

Hi.

I'm new to this forum but would love someone that I could communicate with regularly.

I was banded 11/24/09 in South Carolina. I'm 35, married, no kids....lots of pets! I'm a veterinarian with a weight loss goal of 100 pounds.

Having some trouble being excited about this liquid phase! Ready to get on with it!

Will someone mentor me?

Thanks!

Hi Sara

I'm 5 1/2 years out and would be glad to help where I can. I lost 250 lbs and have kept them off so I promise that following the rules for banded livIng will be worth the effort

"Iquids definitely get old pretty quickly. Are you getting in enough Protein?

Sometimes v8 juice because of being thick and sakty is a nice change from sweet protein.

Let me know how you're doing.itterlady;1373664]Hi.

Hi Larry, thank you for replying.

I hope you won't take offense when I say I'd like to be "mentored" by someone who has been on this program for awhile, but I do wish you the best and will certainly see you on the boards!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
