Hi, i'm new to site and loving the site so far! would love to find support and motivation. I had lap band surgery june 2009, have not gained any pounds since surgery, but had a slow journey losing. My mom was very sick and passed away and I fell and broke my leg and was in bed for months :( I had another half cc put in my band last wednesday and i decided to finally start keeping a food diary and get on track. i lost about 4 pds so far since wednesday so i'm feeling good!!!

I'm patti, Baltimore, MD
Dr. Singh is my Lap Band Surgeon - Banded 6/2009

    Patty, work hard and welcome. I had Gastric Bypass and have lost 270 lbs in 19 months. I think logging my food and exercise really helped me gain control. Good luck and kep up the good work.

    I am contemplating lapband myself. I have a seminar appt. I attended seminar before and went all the way to the setting up the appt. and then found out I was pregnant. That was almost 4 years ago so I'm looking at it again. Good luck to you!

    congrats to big hank!!! wow 270lbs is amazing!!!

    bell33usx2...let me know if u decide and if u have any questions. i'm very glad i had the lap band surgery or i would have kept gaining weight. the weight is slow coming off, but it's coming off. Weighed in today and doc, lost 5.7 in one week, keeping the food diary here really works!!!
