lap band conversation
Hi Beverly,
I am a lap band recipient and I find it quite a pleasant challenge. Even though I am losing weight I know that I will not lose it as fast as if I had gotten the Gastric Bypass. I do however know I will reach my goal weight eventually. For that I am grateful and pleased to have had the surgery in the first place. I am just taking it one day at a time. Today, I even exercised for about 20 minutes with the ball. I didn't want to over due it so I started off with leg lifts and a few crunches. I did not do enough to over exert myself since this was my first day. I will try to do a little bit every day just to get use to moving my body. Tomorrow I will walk outside for about 10 minutes. For every pound I lose I gain a pound of confidence. Good luck and take care!!!
