On the 3rd of November 2007 i had lap band surgery atThe Princess Grace Hospital London UK. My surgeon is a Mr Ameet Patel, my surgery took around two hours when i came round i felt like i had been hit by a truck. Mr Patel was there for me and made me feel safe at such a odd time.
On the day of surgery i was 322lbs. I was given a diet sheet to follow fluids for 2 weeks then i could move onto what i like to all baby food.. for 4 weeks then i could move onto solid food after 6weeks. By week 6 i had lost 19lbs i was just so proud of myself.
Now Xmas is just around the way and im not looking forward to it. Xmas before surgery was food with more food. Now you cant forget the drinks.. and i love my egg nog. Anyway it was hard but i did it Xmas came and went, i did put on weight but i was good enough not to let it get me down.
Time for my 1st fill... Now 10wks post op 24lb down.. So im doing well, i get a letter from my surgeon office i cant have my fill. So yes... i was upset but you just have to get on with it. Another 4wks go by and then... I have my 1st fill on the 8th of Feb im still 24lb down and still happy. My 2nd fill is due on the 9th of May and i cant wait.... Weight loss so far at 19wks post op is 36lb.
