Was banded last May. I only lost 17 pounds. I never got the hang of the eating! I was ALWAYS hungry. I had all of the Fluid removed from my band in February. Planning on having another child I had my BC implant (implanon) removed last week. Within three days I was questioning how I ever ate so much food! For the past three years I have just been eating everything in sight! Now I know I will be able to loose weight! I did it before lost 91 pounds in a year. Eating healthy and working out and since the implant was put in I couldn't do it! Sad about spending 10k on my surgery but excited about post pregnancy weight loss! Maybe I won't gain 60 pounds with the next baby!

I am 9 days post-op (5-15-13 Surgery date). I also had the "What did I get myself into" mind set. I have to admit I still do...mainly when all the people around me are eating, but it has gotten easier, as I hope it will continue to do. So glad you are feeling better!

Awesome!!! Onward and Downward Congrats!

Well, here goes... my first post-op coffee!! YAY!! I feel the same way, mrsinto - I have no other vices - at least let me have this!! although I certainly do not pretend that my coffee has the powers attributed to Terry's!! LOL

My hubby got scared. He told me, "don't go getting skinny and decide to leave me!" When I told him I wanted to be skinny so he could pick me up and ravage me against a wall, his tune totally changed!! Funny thing is now that I've lost most of my excess weight, he's suddenly lifting weights! I guess he still has that promise in the back of his mind!! I'm not quite small enough for him to pick me up like that just yet, but I can't wait!!

another BOY!!! I was actually really shocked. My oldest is a girl and my other two are boys, so I was hoping to "even the score", but he's healthy and VERY active in there. Now to figure out a name lol. He's measuring exactly at my due date which is 10/28 We cant wait to meet him!

What an amazing feeling, to jump on the scale and see this loss. With that said, I now move on to the puréed food stage and I know the weight loss will slow down. I thought I would be excited to start eating regular food, but I'm kinda scared. Scared of getting stuck and scared of enjoying the taste too much.
