elfkin2001 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 My name is H and I was banded May of 2008. I have lost a total of 36lbs and am ecstatic! I am part of another web forum called Armywifechat.com and we have a small Weight Loss Surgery section that I moderate. I am hoping to get some more information on post op life with the lap band for myself and my other "girls " that are starting the process. I feel I have been doing well, but I am ready to buckle down and change up my diet. 6 months post op and I have been "getting by" but I want to take control of the diet more and set down better guidelines for myself. I am also very guilty of not following the pouch rules so I want to kick that into gear. I weighed 255 pre-op. I am currently 216. My goal is to drop below 200 by January and my ultimate goal is to hit 135 by next November. I am excited to be here and look forward to meeting all of my fellow Banders.

Well hello there and welcome! I'd be glad to kick you in the rear! Oh, oops, sorry you said GEAR! LOL!! Just kidding! Stick around and let us know when you need US to kick you and we will, gently. We will also support you and help you on your journey! You've done good so far, that weight loss is nothing to sneeze at. But, you DO need to follow the pouch rules so you don't stretch it and ruin it. Good luck and welcome!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
