Had my last fill on 21 October 2014 and managed to lose the last of my weight and I am delighted to say the least. However I have suffered with bad reflux since the fill and as much as I hated it I have just had a 1 cc until. Wish me luck guys I don't want to put any of this weight back.

Our greatest glory consists not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

Thank you all so much for your kind comments it means so much to me. No I am not offended at all by your comment 2muchfun if it wasn't for you and CG and Missy I would have never got this far, I still have my struggles, but it is all worth it. B-52 my goal was 60kgs and a normal BMI I agree this for life, so I hope I do stabilize naturally, but one thing for sure if you listen to the band over eating is not a possibility. Thank you all once again for all the support.

I am so very happy today, I started this journey on the 21st March 2013 and today I reached my goal weight of 60kgs. I now look in the mirror every morning and I just love what I see.

OMG just changed from fat free milk to 2% actually looking to increase calories to stay at this weight.

Wow!!! You look fantastic, who would ever believe you have been overweight, you look like a natural skinny person.

Thank you all so much for your kindness, couldn't have done this without the support I have received from this forum xxx

Am no longer overweight, my BMI puts me in the normal range.

Oh poor you! my band does not like so many things and I am glad about that, but it still tolerates ice-cream and chocolate. I so wish it didn't

interesting, but not right for me I happy thin, and willing to do whatever it takes to stay this way.

Every doctor is different, I had no pre-op and no has pains whatsoever. Good Luck!!!!

You look amazing. So happy for your success.

Congratulation, love your posts and all the inspiration you have given, so glad you mentioned it takes a year, I've been banded 9months and I still feel I have so much to learn.

Well done you, looking absolutely awesome!!!!!

I have read many inspiring stories on this forum, but yours is the best ever, many congratulations you look fabulous.

Thank you all so very much, without your support I could not have done it, I still have about 10lbs to lose, but that can wait. For 2014. I hope you guys all have a wonderful festive season. I am off to see my daughter in Australia, I have not felt this good in years about my body. xxxxxxxx

If anyone wants to know if the band works the answer is YES, YES, YES

Just been on two weeks holiday, and for the first time in my life did not pick up any weight at all. I love you band xxx

I am down 70lbs and feeling great (thank you, thank you band). The dilemma and I know it is a good one is should I carry on and lose the final 18lbs??? I am 59 years old and so far the skin I can live with, it is not pretty. I will never be able to afford to have surgery, it almost broke us paying for WLS so no chance for more surgery. Has anyone got advice for me, or faced similar situation?

59th Birthday present "myself" less 65lbs from last year.

Thank you for your post. I to am riding out my last fill because of your post. I can eat and drink and my problems are small so it's not that I wouldn't have an infill if I needed to, but you do put a different spin on things. I don't miss the pizza, bread or chips I love that the band takes care of those things, and I love for the first time in my life I am a small eater, was at a function recently and could not believe what people put on their plate because it's free, please GOD that is never me again because the price you pay for over eating is so great.

Wow, what a difference, you look great congratulations.

OMG that is awesome, you look Fantastic, congratulations hugxxxhugxxx
