MY LAPBAND HAD TURNED SO I JUST HAD MY REVISION 2 DAYS AGO TO GET IT BACK IN PLACE. I WAS ALSO ABLE TO GET A SMALL FILL WHICH REALLY DOESNT FEEL LIKE MUCH. THEY TOOK OUT SOME WHEN IT WAS TOO MUCH AFTERWARDS BUT NOW I THINK ITS NOT ENOUGH. I'LL GET STRAIGHTENED OUT SOON ENOUGH I'M SURE. I'VE LOST 7 MORE LBS SINCE MY LAST DOCTOR VISIT AND HOPEFULLY WITH IT WORKING LIKE IT SHOULD NOW, THE WEIGHT WILL COME OFF QUICKER. BUT STILL...SO FAR SO GOOD. I FEEL SORE BUT I FEEL GREAT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN GOING TO SPIN, KICKBOXING, AND YOGA CLASS AT THE LOCAL GYM WITH A FRIEND OF MINE. I DO GREAT WITH HER MAKING ME GO AND NOT WANTING TO HEAR MY EXCUSES:)

Okay so I only had the surgery in Februaury and the majority of the weight I've lost so far (39lbs) I've lost in my stomach. I've been exercising like crazy trying to avoid the dreaded loose skin situation. However my stomach is hanging very disgustingly low and my arms have long thin flappers on them now. And its only the beginning. Does anyone know the average time people wait before looking into plastics? Is there a certain percent of weight they want you to lose before considering it? Or other than regular exercising, are there any tricks or certain exercise moves to improve these areas? Any help would be a big help.

SO I WENT TODAY FOR MY FIRST FILL. IT DID NOT GO AS WELL AS I HAD HOPED IT WOULD. APPARENTLY MY PORT HAD TURNED SIDEWAYS AND WHILE HE TRIED TO TURN IT RIGHT SIDE UP USING THE SALINE NEEDLE I COULD FEEL MYSELF GETTING HOT AND SWEATY. AFTER OVER 30 MINS OF JABBING ME THEY FINALLY FOUND THE PORT AND INSERTED THE SALINE. I TOOK MY FIRST DRINK OF WATER AND IMMEDIATELY FELT IT COMING BACK UP. MY CHEST STARTED TO BURN AND I COULDNT STOP GAGGING. SO THERE I WAS THROWING UP IN THE SINK AND LEANING AGAINST THE WALL SWEATY AND DIZZY WHILE THE DOC WAS TRYING TO FIND THE PORT AGAIN WHICH TOOK HIM SO LONG TO FIND IN THE FIRST PLACE. THEY SAID IT HAPPENS EVERY NOW AND THEN. LUCKY ME. HE FINALLY FOUND IT AND TOOK ALLLLL THE SALINE OUT. I HAVE TO WAIT NOW TO HEAR FROM THEM TO SET UP A TIME TO DO THE FILL WITH AN XRAY TELLING THEM WHERE TO GO IN AT. MY SIDE HURTS AND I'M STILL HUNGRY. BUT HEY I LOST 7 MORE LBS. I REALLY AM HAPPY ABOUT THAT!:)

SO I HAD MY SURGERY ABOUT 2 &1/2 WEEKS AGO. I FEEL SO MUCH MORE ENERGY AND I AM FOLLOWING THE DIET PROGRAM FAITHFULLY. I HAVE LOST 26LBS TOTAL! I HAVE HOWEVER NOTICED MY FACE LOOKS DULL, PALE, AND DROOPY. I'M SURE ONCE MY BODY GETS USED TO THINGS IT WILL GET BETTER. I JUST LOOK SICKLY. BUT THE WEIGHT IS COMING OFF LIKE IT SHOULD AND I'VE NEVER HATED ANYTHING MORE THAN I HATE SOUP RIGHT NOW! HAHA:) OTHER THAN MY DROOPY FACE...SO FAR SO GOOD:)

Well today is March 1st 2009. I came home last night after having the Lap band surgery done.  I'm not hungry at all and I'm actually having a hard time meeting my fluid intake goals. I'm down to the lowest I've been in years thanks to the preopt dieting I had to do in order to lose 2% of my body weight for my insurance requirements. I am currently 309lbs. So far so good! Now its time to start my new life:)
