I had my follow up appt. with Dr. Spaw yesterday. (Lap-band) I had lost 15lbs since surgery on Feb. 5. That makes 42 since my journey began. My insurance made me lose 10%, but I am proud that they did. I worked hard for this so it made it sweeter. I was surprised to find that this last 15lbs was a result of following the recommended meal plan, and I didn't have any restriction yet. I will go back and get my first fill in 2 weeks. Isn't funny how much our heads have to do with this whole process. I was still feeling sore and afraid to sleep on my left side too much, but as soon as Dr. Spaw said I was doing fine i WAS doing fine. I would recommend him to anyone.

I had my first post-op this week also. I'm down 20lbs, including what I lost my 1 week pre-op liquid diet. I was happy to get rid of my drain. Congrats on your success.

You are off to a great start!! Keep up the good work. Don't you just love Dr. Spaw? He is such a sweetie and cheerleader.
