    PureGamble got a reaction from 2muchfun in Male Banders   
    Just shy of 15 months since I had surgery. I'm about 20 pounds from my goal I've lost 110 so far. It was the best decision I have ever made. As mentioned before it should be viewed as a tool or aid to help assist in weight loss. If your looking for a quick fix or have no interest in working hard to achieve your goals then this isn't for you. I owe my life to the band and thanks to what it's done for me my quality of life has improved drastically. Nervousness is all part of the experience. Good luck with your decision.

    PureGamble reacted to HealthyNewMe in No more DIET New Year's RESOLUTIONS for me!   
    For the first time in my adult life I won't be making my typical "I'm going on a diet," "I'm going to lose weight," "I'm going to join a gym and exercise everyday" resolutions.......
    WHY????
    I have the band.... I don't DIET anymore.
    I am losing weight.
    I've been going to the gym 5-6 times a week for the past seven months. It's now a regular part of my day that I must do..... I crave the endorphins!!!!

    Hi All,
    Today is 6 months exactly since I had lap band surgery. It was the greatest decision I've ever made. I'm 24 years old and 6'2. 2 weeks before pre op I was 330 lbs. Today I'm proud to say I weigh 247 lbs totally 83 lbs lost so far. My goal weight is 210 lbs and I hope to be there by May. There's no greater feeling then making the decision to become healthier. I went from being lazy to working out 5 days a week and playing basketball one night a week. There's no better motivation then seeing the scale continue to go down. Hopefully 6 months from today I can say I'm at my goal!

    Banded on May 21st 2013 (Weighed 330 2 weeks prior to surgery) today I'm 279. Got my second fill yesterday and I think I'm perfectly in the green zone. In my opinion the green zone is the place where you have to be conscious of chewing and if you eat too quickly you get the stuck feeling almost instantly. On average I can eat about 1 hamburger patty per meal. Feels great my goal is 120 pounds so I'm almost halfway there.

    I had surgery May 21st 2013 and have lost 52 lbs so far. My goal is 120 so I'm almost halfway there. I've had 1 fill 4cc and I'm having another one tomorrow. I've been working out crazy hard and continue to see results.
