my sleeve journey

Nov 30, 2014

today is Nov 30, 2014.  I had a lap band sugery in Dec 2011 with my weight heaviest being 306 and surgery weight being 290. I lost 55 pounds in the first 6 mth. then i plateaud. I have managed to keep my at 256-260 for the last 2+yrs with the lap band. On Labor Day weekend 2014 I got some chicken stuck and my lab band slipped. I was unable to eat anything, and only able to get a half bottle of water by sipping daily. After the 3rd day i went back to the surgeon and he let 4cc's out of the 6cc's  of  fluid out of my band. I have been able to eat just about anything i want. so now i am back up to 270, which i think is not bad considering i havent been able to eat a full meal in 3 yrs. I had my nutrition appt on Nov 5, Sleep study #1 on Nov 20, diagnosed with sleep apnea so i had sleep study #2 on Nov 25th.  I have also already completed my blood work and ekg so I am waiting on the nurse to call me on scheduling the surgery. I am hoping to go  in on Jan 2.
