  1. Thanks ladies!! I guess I'm just impatient lol... I feel great though, and I've spoke with other bandsters from the office and they lost between 30-45 lbs the first month. I thought I was just odd. I did speak with my nurse and she said I was "trippin" because I'm doing great! Good news is, I have my first fill on 7/17/12. Another thought... Am I weird because I already have restriction with no fills... Is that a good thing? Idk but they said I was a great candidate to get a fill during the surgery due to my weight loss pre op as well as internal organ stuff.. Idk the proper lingo I notice my portions are considerably diminished. And have instituted healthier snacks...
  2. Hey all I am a newbie to the forum!! I had surgery on 6/14/12. I started pre op diet on 5/31/12. I lost 11 lbs prior to surgery, and now 4 weeks post op I have lost a total of 21 lbs. Am I having too high of expectations to lose more weight than I am? I am averaging about 1100 calories a day, minimizing carb intake and working out religiously at least 5 times per week. I started at 217lbs and now am down to 196. Am I being unrealistic?
