ericsmom Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Hi - I am new to the board and to the process. Just decided to have lap band and my surgery with Dr. Ortiz is 8/28! At around 205-210 lbs, it's TIME! Your post is truly inspirational and helps me envision a goal! I tried to send you a private email but I don' t think it went through -- I am really trying to plan ahead and it would be great to be able to use the fill center doc in Mt Laurel. It's only 8 miles from my house and would really be perfect! But I've heard variable stories about fill docs, so wanted to know about your experience. I would very much appreciate your perspective! Thanks, Danielle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelav Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Just an update. Lost 10 more lbs. This time its because i had food stuck and i had to have clear liquids for three days. So I am not as proud of this loss. However it is loss! > Hieght 5'2 start 197 3/30/97 pre-op 187 banded 4/9/07 weight 167 first fill 6/11/07 2.5ccs weight 160 second fill .2 ccs weight 155 8/7/07 weight today 145lbs 9/25/07 goal 125lbs 20 lbs to go ! =D> but I am starting to feel like 135 may be enough .
