Lap Band Weight Loss?
Has anyone finished this and if so what is it like? Does/Did it support you? Did you hit whatever problems? I hit a someone who is intellection most doing it and I meet poverty to intend whatever advice from grouping who hit actually finished this.
I had lap band 4-16-08 and I am down 75 pounds and I had a very easy time with the surgery. I had five small incisions, really, 3 small incisions and two puncture wounds from the instruments. Like the person before me, I am very glad I had it. I am so active now and I still have 75 pounds more to go. I cannot eat any dry meats, no matter what they are. I can’t eat rice of any kind (discomfort from the band) I have some trouble with pasta, not much and bread is something that I couldn’t live without but I have learned it is not that important to me anymore. You have to learn to eat right and I am doing that. I have cheated several times but my surgeon told me how to without ruining everything I am trying to do for myself. I am so glad about the band and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I am proud I have the band.
