Such a good feeling ! WTG!

you should be tired for several days rest and heal , you will feel better soon

I am having the same issue, massive amounts of hair , I am taking a multi,and biotin and just hoping it helps

Today I hit my half way goal 47 lbs! 47 to go , I am so greatful

Name, real or screen~ Michelle Goal Weight for November~ 184. Weight November 1 ~189.2 Age~ 39 Dietary goal ~ MORE PROTEIN UGH! Exercise goal ~ more weights Date Banded ~ July 19 2013 Total weight loss , pre op/Banding ~45

I was a diet pepsi junky before surgery the last one I had was the night before surgery I don't miss it things I crabed before have changed to different things, yoir tastes will change

My surgeon stitches it to the muscle

Final monthly check in Starting weight was 196 Todays weight 189 I didn't reach my month goal but I'm happy down -7 which is awsome

I have never done something for muself that was more worth it , I wish I had done it 20 years ago down almost 45 pounds so far

It gets better , addiction to food takes awhile to get over but you will when your band works for you , I really don't think about eating that much anymore every 4-6 hours I think geeze I should eat something but in between I really don't think about food, I had 1 slice of pizza today and thought meh I should have had chicken that would have been so much tastier. Its hard in the beginning but your love affair with food will fade .Best of luck

Yes! I also LOVE spicy food and after banding when I was back to solids my tolerance was terrible, its getting better now though , I'm about 14 weeks out

That's amazing! Congrats everyone!

I had a salad today, so good but I still keep in in band portions and protein first

Checking in at 191.8 down two from last week - 5 total

You look awsome! Congratulations on the pants!

Congratulations , I am always impressed by runners, I workout a lot could never get in to running

Checking in at 192.4, -4 lbs

So far, Crossing my legs Returning a shirt because it was to BIG Not constantly thinking of food My husbands arms going all the way around me Running up a flight of stairs Not being winded bringing the laundry from the basement to the top floor

My doctor was the same no alcohol or asa two week prior

I felt great a week post op as well followed and still following the rules to the letter dropped 40 pounds so far , you will do great and congrats on the loss so far

feel better, I am dreading my first illness and I get a really bad case of bronchitis every year

Yes including pre-op as I also always include that

Thanks everyone it feels so great!
