Any Lap Banders?

I had a LapBand on 9-21-07 and have lost 46 pounds to date. Just seeing how that compares to some others in my boat. No hair loss. maybe because it is slower that RNY seems to be. I am just looking for some comparisons and encouragement I suppose.

Hi! I had Lap Band on 9/7/07 and I have lost 52 lbs. No hair loss for me either. Your doing great!

You both are doing great!!!! I don't feel like I have the same success that you have. I am down 36 from pre-op and only down 21 pounds from surgery....9 of those came within the past 2 weeks when I started augmenting with 2 Imelda Perfect Slim capsules every morning (makes me not so food focused...took away my "I am so deprived" "wo is me" feeling!) I am just happy right now that the scale is going down, down down!!! I actually put on a pair of jeans this week and the waist band did not roll down below my belly!! Ahhh....don't we live for those little "COOL!!" moments. Hat's off to your weight loss!! I think 2008 is going to be a great year for ALL of us!!!!! -Ann

 Hi friend, I too had lapband surgery 9/21/07. Lost 53lbs, was getting discouraged. Im getting there, kinda fell off the wagon becuz I wasnt losing as I thought I should have. Im good now, brand new attitude, want to lose 50 more lbs within the next 6 mos.
