my sister got G.B. in august 2007, and she got sick ALOT for her first 4 months or so...now, she is doing well...it takes a while for some folks. glad your honey is doing better! glad you are doing well, too! i get lapband on december 8th...i am nervous, but mostly EXCITED for this new journey! thanks for sharing your experience it's encouraging for so many! :) keep at it...best to you both. take care...i'll check back in soon. peace.
Sorry to hear about your sister, I got complications from the gastric band and I am uploading videos about it tonight or tomorrow. I hope your lap band surgery went well and you're doing well with it!
sorry to hear about your complications. I hope all is well soon. I had the gastic sleeve or vsg, and I had no problems whatsoever...I'm doing really great with it.
Everything is almost back to normal. Apparently this happens to roughly one in 900 people, and we all run the risk taking the surgery, but it hasn't made me regret the surgery and I'm almost 100% over the complications and already begun the recovery! I hope your wife recovers quickly Mark :)
My partner had the surgery yesterday, and I have subscribed to your vlog, so that I can get some understanding what she will be going through, and hopefully be able to help her cope. I think what you have done is inspirational. Thank you for continuing these vlogs. I hope your wife keeps getting better.
Oh, Mark! I so wish I could defeat my temptation of chocolate. I have been eating it a lot lately. I even now know my 'limit' before dumping. And believe me, I have pushed it here lately. Good for you for defeating the enemy.
you look good, glad to hear you are able to change your way at looking at things like candy and stuff. Its not easy. Stef should come around soon with new process going on, thats cool. Some folks it just takes different paths, but all paths end up to the same destination, right ? Jims in town and hope we can all get together before he leaves.
5 lbs a week!!! WOW! Glad to hear about the Halloween candy. I didn't fare so well. I had a Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkin. Of course, I paid for it with no weightloss last week. You're right about making good choices. Good for you! Sorry your wife is having troubles. Hopefully the port will take care of it.
Mark Im so glad to hear that Stef is on an upward swing. Hopefully soon she will be taking those walks with you. Congrats on another great loss this week!!
Great job defeating the chocolate monster Mark! I used to eat SO MUCH chocolate! But you're right, there are very good alternatives. How do you like the Wii Fit?!? I was thinking of getting it...I hope Stephanie gets back on track soon, please let me know if I can do anything to help :)
how long before you could go back to work post opt?

They suggested I had 2 weeks rest from the day I got released from hospital before I went to work, and no heavy lifting for quite a while :)
