Would love to get a pen pal!

Just had my lap band surgery 9/30 and am awaiting my first fill. Would love to have a pen pal who has already had surgery--doesnt matter what stage though. I'm a mother of two from Iowa, 30 years old. Thanks everyone!

Congratulations on your recent banding!!!  i had my surgery in June of 08; I am down 140 pounds and would have loved to have someone who had 'been there' to talk to in the beginning.  I'm also a mom of 2 from Cleveland.  Hope to hear from you soon; feel free to send me a message!

I havent checked this in forever--sorry for taking so long! And thanks for responding!!

Congrats on being down 140-that is absolutely amazing!

Right now I feel like I'll never get to that point. Today I'm stressed because I got my 2nd fill on Wednesday and still dont notice a change. My dr had me drink water and tell him when I thought I noticed a difference, I thought I did but now I'm doubting that and am feeling a little silly. I'm down only 20 lbs and my surgery was 9/30/09. Did you keep a record of your weight loss?

Other days I'm excited because I notice my clothes being loser or I notice my face looking a little slimmer. What a roller coaster!

Have a great weekend!
