Hey everyone. I had lap band surgery in March of this year. In the past 4 months I've lost 40lbs. Hoping to keep this 10lbs a month weight loss going till I reach my goal of 70lbs lost. Just eating right, tracking everything I eat, and working out. Looking for support and accountability. From the Houston area. Would love to meet others in my area who are currently going through post weight loss surgery weight loss.

    Did that help kind of reset your appetite? What were the benefits to lap band surgery? I know the diet is very restrictive before and after while you recover.

    Oh my gosh yet. It has helped tremendously. The benefits are that never in my life have I've been able to lose more than 15lbs on my own. Thanks to the lap band, I've lost 40 and I'm still losing. I can't have any thing carbonated, no bread, pasta, rice or potatoes. Lots of fruits, veggies, and protein.
