Reaching Your Goal



Recommended Posts

Have any of you December 2010 banders met your goal yet? I am almost there. I'm so excited. I was almost there about a year ago and had a problem with my band. They took the saline out and I have been struggling to lose every since. I am finally back to the weight I was 8 months ago. I have a 10 cc band and I am at 7.2 ccs. The restriction is great. I sure hope nothing goes wrong again.

Good morning!

I was banded December 2010 and I'm 15lbs away from my goal! I could have been there by now, but I've been slacking on the exercise!!

I'm still loving my band and my new body!

Good luck to you!

Hello and good morning to you as well. Thank you for responding and letting me know that. Ugh! I was feeling so bad that I had not met my goal yet. I'm 12 pounds away. I am loving my body as well. Good luck to you too. Thanks.

I was banded in dec. 2010. I'm still a LONG way off. I had some dial action so they removed a lot of my Fluid a month ago and put me on phentermine. I need some encouragement. I lost 90 LBS and gained 40 when they removed my saline. Do y'all still vomit? Are y'all in your green zone? I just started hardcore workouts.

No, I do not vomit. I actually reached my goal and I have now gained 18 pounds back. I was really small and my family and friends could hardly recognize me. LOL I guess I was just too skinny for them. :D I'm back at 150 pounds which was my original goal weight. I'm six years out and still get adjusted from time to time. I'm down to 6.5 ccs in my band I think. I'm wearing a size 10 now. I'm still drinking Protein Shakes and what I eat fluctuates from day to day. Some days I can eat all day and other days, I barely eat. As long as I'm still healthy is all that matters. Be blessed all.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
