Lap Band

I see all these profiles from people that have had RNY. is there anyone that has had Lap Band on here. I am a little over a month post op and down around 22lbs (was hoping for more). and i'm just curious about how long it's gonna take for me to see some bigger numbers. when i last weighed in with dr. houston, i had only lost 4 lbs since my previous visit which was 3 weeks prior. am i doin something wrong?

Hi Tamela, sounds like you are doing everything you should be doing if you have lost that amount in a little over a month. Several have had lap bands on this forum, there is also a lapband forum. Just stick to the diet you are on and you will lose. Don't forget to drink plenty of water especially with this heat, and excercise daily. Those two will help with the weightloss. I wish you much sucess. Kathy

Just wanted to share some info I was banded on Dec.12, 2005 at Vanderbilt I am now down 60 lbs and 10 inches off my waist. That is an average of 10lbs a months It came off slower in the beginning and I am now losing 3 to 4 lbs a week Keep up the good work and do not get discouraged You are doing GREAT!! Tammy
