Hi there. I am fairly new to the Lap Band family. I was banded on November 21, 2007. On the day of my surgery I was 285. Now, less than 3 months later, I weigh 236. Admittedly, I was pretty nervous prior to surgery. However, my physicians and nurses made me feel so comfortable that I relaxed as soon as I checked into the hospital that morning. Everything went so smoothly. The surgery itself was a cinch. No problems whatsoever. I had my first fill of 1.5 cc on Jan. 7,2008. I lost 14 pounds in the last month alone and was never hungry for even a second. That is miraculous to me.
By now, I assume that you have had your surgery and I hope that all is going just as well for you. I would like to know your progress and how you are feeling. Keep in touch! :-h
