Lap Band on 12/17/07 with
I had my lap band surgery on December 17th.  I had been going to Weigh****chers before to start the process and to have a consistent scale to weight myself on.  Before surgery I'd lost about 10 lbs.  In the two weeks (since the Thursday before my surgery) I've lost 20.2 lbs.  My friends are telling me that they can already see a difference.  I know that this much weight isn't going to continue, but it sure is nice to see the weight going away. Now I just need to get off my butt more and get some more exercise.  I'm moving next weekend, and my new apartment has an amazing fitness center in it, so I won't have the excuse of having to drive anywhere to work out.  I'm very excited...just wanted to share.

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's such a GREAT feeling, isn't it???? Definately get moving...that will help you.  Plus make sure you get in your water, vitamins and protein.  Just because you had lap does not mean that you are exempt from the increased protein.  You should do it anyways. Keep up the GREAT work!!!!

Congratulations on the great weight loss, and the desire to work out.  The combination of your "tool" and the exercise really is the key...so....GO FOR IT! Cindy
