6 months Post op

I haven't been on here and months... but I'm hoping my post will help someone who is lopking for what to expect.  I am 6 months post-op, down almost 70 pounds and it was the best decision I ever made!!  I had a lap-band 8 years ago this month, and never once felt as good as I do today!  I have so much energy, can wear a pair of size 10 jeans   and have never felt better!!  I eat regular food- just not near as much as I use to.  Sugar does make me feel ill, but that is a good thing-  makes me behave.  I do eat a small amount of a dessert if I want it, but I don't eat much and a taste is all I need or want.  Cravings are gone!- well almost....  Since surgery, I have wanted the taste of pizza and strawberries.  I just have enough to satisfy me and I'm done.  I have about 25 more pounds to go and I can see the light!!  So happy!!!

That is great. I am almost ! month out and I have noticed a difference in almost all that I do or wear. Clothes that has not fit me in months or years I am now wearing again. It does feel good. I am waiting patiently for that 6 months time to come.

I am 5months out and I have lost 83lbs, :) I agree, it was the best decision I made, a little scary at first but glad I did it! Congratulations on your weight loss! Sugar doesn't bother me so much either, only if I eat or drink to much or too fast I get sick, learning on how to eat was the roughest part.
